I deleted my alternator (wire, tin, bolts, nuts, brackets, etc) and saved 18 pounds!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
Now I want to delete the relay board. But I need to know how to wire the starter in. I know I'll need some sort of voltage regulator or relay in the starter circuit. What have the others of you done? Thanks, Paul |

Here's what we did: Get the wiring diagram for your year, then figure which wires from the front part of the car will be needed and which wires going to the rear part are needed. These are generally the two large connectors on the board. Then get one or two of the military aircraft locking type of connectors and lay out which wires go to which pins on each side of the connector. Get someone you can trust to double check your diagram so there will be NO sparks! The cut the wires and splice in new sections to extend each wire (on mine about 6 inches worked) then connect to each side of the connectors. If you have a rear electrical kill switch you will have to wire that in as will a engine comptartment starter switch if you have one (I do, very handy). I use an alternator with a built in regulator so I don't need the board mounted regulator and all power comes through the kill switch before going anywhere. Good luck.
