After refitting the fuel pump after wiring it up was able to fit the pipes on to the tank fittings

Reversing light
Been putting off fitting the reversing light for some time as marked it out while the body was on the stand and just wasnt happy that it looked right ,due to the shape of the car so difficult to get datum marks .
Once the boot was on and fitted using the handle gave me another reference so at least it would look right .
measured from each side on the boot handle and each side of the lights and eventually was happy so fitted finally .
Again using the stand offs supplied by Andy I have opted for the lights to have the screws up and down so using the stand off i could use the existing screws just had to extend then with 5mm barrel nuts .
finally happy looks good |
flushed with success decided to finish the wiring in the boot . The loom naturally goes to the 2 sides of the car and everything is duplicated .My wiring loom had 2 earths each side instead of the 1 shown on the diagram .checked with a meter and they were both good ,so used the Bullet joinerfor 1 earth and brake/tail + indicator and a straight joiner for the other earth and reversing light or fog light .
once the wires were all conected set out to try and tidy it up a bit ,using a p clip to the indicator fixing made it look a lot better ( get covered with carpet anyway .
