ROFLOL - you guys are funny!

alternator fuse is a big 100 something amp fuse (hmm could be 75 amp), that is found in the fusebox near the battery on the drivers side of the car.

it also does not look like a standard spade fuse - its much bigger and squarish, with a clear "lid".

it costs about R150-00 at nissan for a new one!

AND - i advertised a recon alternator the other day for 500 bucks and no-one wanted it. now people are having power problems! LOL.

Shot VC...

I don't thinks its the altenator fuse though... otherwise the car would've died if you take of the battery... correct?

Hey Riekert, been looking at doing the sileighty conversion myself and i see you've said you're getting "lights + fittings", does that include the headlight brackets? It's something i overlooked but i'm sure you knew that already.

Hey man. yeah.

The fittings is the brackets to fit the headlights to the frame.

I actually didn't know about it either.... then did a bit of searching and saw you needed new brackets.

Shweet dude. Are you sourcing the individual parts off e-bay or did you organize the complete kit from an overseas tuner company?

I got the parts locally. Its form a Silvia on the forum. So at least I got it for a very good price. but it needs a bit of work...

I did source a full frontend... but it would've cost me around R15k to get it here. and then another R5-R10k for shipping and customs
