Converted obk's are the best, as you don't see them very often.
Keep up the good work & new pics when ya can.

Question: where did you get the plastidip from?
Progress is looking good so far.
Google the engine codes. OBD-II codes are fairly uniform amongst other manufacturers
I'd print off the list and keep them handy for chasing gremlins.
There will be a few, no matter how good a conversion is. Persistence is the key here to killing gremlins.
Any questions, holler.

I got 5 cans of it from Brisbane. At about$30 a can.
My mate did his rims with it, I did my horns, BoV and am going to do the strut brace with it.
It was some kind of neutral switch code. Well work it out
Thanks for your advice Alex. As always.
