Wiring Alterations

 There are some wiring loom alterations that are mentioned on the DVD but not obvious enough for me to have seen before fitting the wiring .

First change is to the horn relay .

The relay has a feed to it and requires an earth impossible to change while its fitted 

Horn relay is the 3rd from the back 

The purple loop need cutting and replacing with an earth .

Second Change is the  fuel pump feed wire, the wiring is fed from an ignition live from the fuse box and on my car the fuel pump is fed from the ecu so the pump wire has to be cut from the fuse box an attached to the ecu fuel pump wire .

As this ignition wire is no longer required i intend to use this wire for the feed to the electric seats and the reverse lock out switch .

Third change is to the washer pump again the feed needs removing and replacing with an earth wire

Throttle cut out

 Once we had fitted the seat it became apparent that the pedal s were to high and driving would be very uncomfortable .pedals out and back like the Hokey Cokey  .

After the final fit there would be no advantage to having the throttle cut out i have previously done . So i have fiberglass the foam back in ,this will make the carpet a bit easier to fit (hopefully )

Dash board part 7

 Been to GD and got a replacement Start button and at the same time got advised that the button will not carry the intended start current !!! 

So Relay now required , fitted the relay on one of the gauges ,as per a previous post i intend to use the engine start light as an oil pressure light so this means that i will need to supply a feed to the light an then the iol pressure sensor will evevitivaly earth it putting the start light on when there is no oil pressure ie engine stopped .

Relay can be seen attached to fuel gauge with the feed coming from the volt gauge  

The gauge lights i have fitted using male spades for the positive but the negative i fastened to the gauge nus to try and increase the earth paths  

Left the speedo and tacho Gauges out to make it easier to fit the dash (hopfully ) 

 

Roll Bars part 7

 On to the last bit of roll bar fitting definitely  a 2 man job  and one that again needs to look right ,the holes are pre marked with 3 dimples to aid drilling,

 Had to be aware of were to place the hole in order to be able to get to the back of the bolts .After much deliberation we decided on on hole in the center, so marking bewteen the roll bars to give a centerline drilled the holes trough the rubber and body in one hit .found the easiest way to do this was by using the flex attachment of the dremel with a 3.2mm drill .

drilled and bolted down 

thought that was the final fix but not happy with the covers as the machine marks can be seen and not 100% sure that the rubber will seal so going to take them out again to polish and apply some sealant  Part 8 should be the final fix .
