So, i thought i needed to do the conversion at first, but i cleaned up all the contacts, and they started to work better. Then this happened, and it all started messing about again so i thought bugger it, time to do the conversion.

Oops
I managed to fix that one, which was a bit harder than the rest, but i got the pictures of the rest

Take one bulb holder, and using a very small flat bladed screwdriver, you hook it under the loop at the top of the bulb holder and work the brass contact up, and off the holder. Like so:

Now the contact needs to be cleaned, so i used a strip of quite coarse emery cloth folded in half and used the folded edge.

Now comes the less tricky bit, the first ones you do will be so so, but once you get the hang of it you'l fly through em. See now the way i did the earth conversion was to use the mounts of the rear lights. So i cut up enough lenth of wires to go from the bulb holders to the nut that holds the rear lights in. On one end of your length of wires (however you intend to earth all the wires) strip the sheathing off about 3/4 inch to an inch. The wire needs to be 'tinned' whereby you put a layer of solder around the length of the wire. Simply done by heating the wire up using a soldering iron, and then slowly applying solder to the wire as you move the soldering iron along underneath the wire, keeping contact to keep the heat. It should look like this:

Now the really tricky bit, these pictures are of one of the last ones i did, as it took me a few attempts on each other one to get it done right haha
Once you've done this for each holder, you push the contact back into its original position in the holder, and then back in the cluster It should look like this:

I've left the earth strip in, purely as it helps hold the holders in as the little clips on either side of my holders were naff. Once this was done, i crimped a ring terminal onto the end of each wire, attached them to the fixing stud of the rear lights, ensuring all the paint was cleaned off and voila! My weeks worth of "AHHHHHH WHY ARE MY INDICATORS COMING ON WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE!!!!
Hope this is of some help to you guys
