WB Panel Van 308 with Turbo 400 would make a good HZ mockup

What about wiring? Is there any change to compensate for the reversing lights?

Yes, totally different wiring harness and also different column wiring for the indicator setup.

Easy enough to change though.
Just 4 diodes in the rear lights and hey presto it's done.

Yeah what i assumed was it was a hz going back to standard tail lights from wb. I have never had a hz but dont they have the blinker lights set up as the reversing lights?

If you go from HZ to WB it's just as easy.
You just run a wire down to the rear from reverse light switch, and hey presto WB reverse lights.

Thats what I was thinking. There's no job like a bodge job.

And yes WBute, thats correct. Hz and earlier use the blinkers as reverse lights which is why the wiring harness is different.

It's just an easier way to do it.

I like the easy way. I had a leaking welsh plug in my van, the one that sit's right behind the engine mount. Didn't really have tools for jacking up or removing engines so went for a self tapper screw and a tube of Knead It. The repair lasted 8 years and is still there, even though the engine is in bits.
