they wont flash fast either as you making the circuit again I did that already, i removed the wiring that would normally go to the side indicators and re-connected the loom. It looks as tho they never existed but they spotted the year and failed me for not having them.looks like i've got to fit some so i've got some small button LED type | |

| welding all got done today, going to be bringing the gaffer tape out 2moro and stick the indicators to the wing mirrors, change the CV boot then back to the MOT station. Having the rear arches welded meant losing the mudflaps , might drill holes and re-attach cos i like the look of them | |
