During assembling we decided also to go with new Hella Lights as these are 25 years old getting matte nevertheless they had still much light as they are running also on 24V but it looks ugly. All lights new and only the lightbar is the last point to do, so we go on
this are still the old Hellas as just decided today during assembly
first intention was using LED but this is not allow for history registration - the Sierra will got LED Lightbar.
Hella Jumbos
Everything we are not allowed to do here because of the History Registration we can do at the Sierra
The test to see if the troop seats fit on with the lightbar was positive. Only we can not mount one folding seat about the fender. I had already feared either Lightbar or Troopseats. Of course, the cover would no longer fit. We have none anyway and even so, this is a practicable solution for us.
As only one can work on the electric does the disambling of Sierra also go on. Let's see how much the 15 years on German roads have cost the truck. Fortunately, the trucks are solidly built. After sandblasting we will know how much we need to replace.
Preowner said he had some trouble on the trailer electric
We will already change on the new 13 wire system - this is the old one with 7 wires.
Finally also found the sending unit of the rear view cam which not working proper, so the info of the preowner. After seeing his wiring, no wonder of that. Fortunately all others is untouched and stockcondition. So not a mess up in that case.
I am always amazed at how little some owners invest in maintenance
