Has anyone got a link to the template for the cross hairs for the DIY smokie hella conversion?

Sorry mods if this is in the wrong section, already done a search and couldn't find anything.

Any help would be lovely

Ogus can you weld?

Ive got a bag full of ready cut xhairs.
Problem is the slots have been cut slightly wrong so will need filling in and new slot cut,peace of p1ss to do
Ill go get a pic........

Cheers Tony but no welding facilities at my gaff.

I have everything ready to go for the cross hairs right here just need the template.

Ive made one set already but armco has claimed one half of the set

Fiddly as hell to do but worth the messin around.

Are you selling these, or helping some fellow zoner out

Ed I wasnt going to do anything with them on here till id welded up the slots on a set and test fitted them to a set of lights.
If they were/are ok i was going to weld a few up each time the mig was out,recut the new slot and flog them for a few quid on here/Ebay?
If you want ill post you a set,you weld/try them and let me know there good and everyones happy.
Sound fair?

Mate untill its confirmed that they fit correctly im doing nothing with them!
Soon as Ed confirms ill start to get them done

send me some...especially now that im fitting my hid kit could do this at the same time

As said,not even confirmed they fit yet,although they were copied from the template doing the rounds so ne reason why not!
Wait till Ed confirms and ill do a set very cheap

If everything all good put me down for a set

Fooking hell guys this is Oguzs thread not a group buy
Anyone that want them ill gladly let you have a set but only once they are proved to work/fit.
Pressure is on Ed really to get on and do his,hassle him

eko, word of advice before you get the mig out...

take a headlamp apart stand one up as i should and place the glass back over the top.

They look exactly like a set I got off someone off here, I spent ages trying to get them to fit cut new holes etc... remember that welding stainless steel requires special wire!

The ones I had look identical and were way too tall to fit in the headlight by a long way.

I am making a set of my own from a steel shelving unit, seems to be good size for it and it's free.

I believe ziggy has a template for the cross hairs if I dont have it in my PM box infact!

eXACTLY THE REASON i WASNT PLANNING ON OFFERING THEM OUT UNTILL THEY WERE TESTED.
iVE SENT A SET TO eD WHICH HE SHOULD GET BY MORNING SO HOPEFULLY HE WILL CONFIRM SOON.

right-o!

I reckon it can be done but I got hacked off and made some more from thinner steel.

I cant remember who I got mine off but as soon as I saw them I knew it wasnt going to be as straight forward as one had hoped!

If I get them in the moring I will have them fitted by sunday.

Ed,what Bobs said has just got me thinking.
Ive just put one of these upto the R3V template(actual size) and they are nowhere near the same

If they are bigger I can take a bit off.
