Would it be possible to retro fit auto wipers and auto lights to a pre-facelift 147 ?
Haven't found much info on this and I was thinking of this as a possible future mod.
I know some 147s came with auto wipers and i could maybe use those parts but did any 147s come with auto lights?
If there aren't any parts already available for auto lights, I could possibly make something up.
Would be nice to know if anyone has done this before.
Any help is great.
as for wipers i would imagine you need windscreen with sensor attachment for a start
personnally i feel auto wipers are dangerous ie, smearing screen when you dont need it
but auto lights good idea but have you ever been behind a care with them fitted , when you go into tunnels or dark parts of highway looks like the fooooooooker is braking
Alfa's auto wipers are a bit of a joke tbh (and the VW ones I had on the Bora were no better). You still have to turn them on every time you get in the car to enable the auto sensor......
Auto lights is something I would have liked though but dont have
Ooh i see . Thanx guys.
What happens if you leave the auto wipers constantly in the 'on' position? Surely they'll only come on when it rains?
Thinking I should just do the auto lights. I'll make up a circuit with a light dependant resistor .
I might be the only one with auto lights on a 147 if it wasn't an option from Alfa.
