Default Butchered Wiring for indys :(

Guys, trying to wire up the indicators but they appear to have been attacked.

Anyone help?



Cheers

Get a soldering iron and some heat shrink tube, If you want a plug and socket get the correct one and solder the connectors rather than crimp. Wont take much to make it neat and more importantly, not a potential hazzard.

Agreed. Just get rid of all the connectors and crimps with a simple snip. Extend cables to the required length, use the stock indicator connectors.
Solder and heat shrink is better and neater than crimp or twist and go with tape on

Looks like Stevie Wonder could have done a better job. I assume the previous owner had shares in chocolate blocks and crimps. As previously stated extend the wires and solder and shrink. Will cost pennies and look 100% better than existing, should also do away with any potential reliability issues.

Sorry guys should have stated that I'm after a colour reference or wiring diagram. Need to wire them in and a number plate light.

On the plus side it will weight about 3kg lighter lol

Mine's like that i just simply put the male spade connectors on the number plate wiring and plugged it in, i do have an aftermarket LED number plate light tho, saying that all the indicator connectors have been cut off and replaced with spades. Likei say just a case of cutting the connector off whatever you want to plug in and putting male connectors on, no biggie really.
