Thats what i was thinking "Negative switching". I'll test the original lead that goes to the high beam globe to see if i can get a 12v+ to trip my relay... Would the globe have to be in circut in order to for this to work?? ( ie get a 12v+ reading on the hi beam lead) Or can i just unplug the lead ...

Had an equaliser hose in my 60 when i got it years ago...... It came straight out!!
I would have all seals replaced when taking out a part like that, it will hardly change the total cost of the job, and will remain reliable for another 200,000kms or more.

You can use/fit the brakes from the earlier 80's, only a bolt on job. then you will be able to run 15'' rims on the rear.
I hit this problem when i tried to use my rims from my old 80 series, they scraped on the rear calipers.
