Hi, i was wondering is there any electrical mods i can do to my coupe while i have the front end stripped down. I owned a x1/9 before and there were various mods like a hard start relay
Thanks Shaun

On both my HPE and my Spider I have a separate relay for the starter motor and for the headlights. Without those, all the current flows through the contact switch and the light switch, which wears them out eventually.
You can also install a relay for the wipers, to improve the whiping speed.

Relay for headlights and main beam definitely worth while.
