Hey guys just wondering what items i need to buy enable to go back to levin?
atm my lil hachi is a Trueno Face conversion.

So far I know the obvious:
L&R Head Lights
L&R Park Lights
L&R Levin Fender
Bonnet (Levin of course)
Bumper (?) - I could use the same one but itll have Trueno Wording on it (lol)
Grill (for cooking bbq)

Straight bolt off and on isnt it?
What about the wiring for the lights (disable the up and down from the trueno lights)
Cable Ties no no, bolts yes yes (bracket mounts?)

Thanks in advance.

Hmm, interesting......

Bumper is different, wont fit (no if's or but's).

You will need the little brackets which support the headlight mounts on a levin, the rest is pretty much straight forward....

You may have to find un-bent, headlight mount brackets to re-weld onto the rad support panel.

They get 'bent' when the are removed......

I pull off the pop up headlights all the time over here. There is no welded pieces to them. Simply unbolt them and remove.



**You will also need the retractor relay.**

I meant to put back on the sprinter / levin.

Trueno lights dont fit with them still welded in place. these brackets will have to re fitted.

*didn't you recently have to source some for your conversion chris?

Oh... To do the trueno conversion, you need to REMOVE your levin headlight brackets that are attached to the radiator support.

And those brackets I never got stinger... I just improvised and used long bolts. :) It works awesome and saves over a hundred dollars.

You would have to save "hundreds" here. Find someone with a wreck or find a wreck or ask AJPS for them. You will probs see the holes where it has been drilled out on your car, simply pot/poprivet them back on, add a bit of paint for blend, and you have your brackets mounted.
