Want to show you the outcome of today (bank holiday in Germany).

Plotted some stickers for the doors and the front fenders.
I'm in love with the new style

Found today a new tool for editing pictures on the smartphone.

PhotoShop-Express, love the results

Had yesterday a ride with a friend who's a shutterbug.
We were looking for a good location for the next shooting.
As it happens he's got his camera with him.
Usually he's working with light and flashes.
Like this quick & dirty pics

Can't await when he's doing the real good ones...

Pretty good for quick & dirty. Congrats to both of you.

1erMQP · 09-05-2018, 01:39 AM

Something was missing on the front Fender.
So I've created a "modernized" Camaro sticker.
Hope you like the new style

- signal on both sides -> brake signal

So the hazard flasher is resulting in flashing brake lights.

Unfortunately I've found the info about this behaviour too late on the
CURT FAQ's and on the German Camaro forum.

So it was time for a rework of the board...

Knew I had seen this somewhere.. I am going for a swedish made splitterbox wired to RS LED european tail lights. Was hoping not to route cables from the front turn signals.
Also going for a OEM light switch with foglight buttons to start the rear foglight.

Ehere did You steal ignition power for the rear foglight?

I'm working with the adapter board in the trunk.

The fog lights are fired by a relay supplied direct by the battery (terminal 30)

Relay is activated by my switch solution.
Power for the the switch is coming from the lights.
So foglights only working with lights on.
This is required for homologation in Germany.

All voltage carrying wiring is secured by fuses.

Jberg805 · 09-05-2018, 03:47 AM

My lightswitch will not come until later this fall, I am putting a temporary foglight switch where the 12v power outlet is in front of the shifter. Should be enough if the foglight is powered by the cars ignition, in Sweden You are not allowed to drive without lights on during any time of the day, stealing the power temporarily from the power outlet wich is controlled by the ignition, will put a new fusebox in the trunk for powered cables.
Hopefully they will approve this solution and I can use this winter to make a permanent solution with OEM looks.
I bought a prewired relay wich was not wired correctly from factory, I just got everything to work out fine. Thanks!

Jberg805 · 09-05-2018, 03:14 PM

Got everything sorted out today, a couple of bolts left to mount for tomorrow night and I am ready to pass the swedish road legal tests.. if I’m lucky they’ll squeeze me in on friday, keep Your fingers crossed! 😁
