carried on with the wiring... it is not theraphutic.... so doing a wee bit at a time interspersed with other more interesting jobs !!!
was cutting out wires and found I had no dash lights... argh, I had cut the power feed from the fuse, easy find .. phew. found the brake warning wire so now labelled and the rear fog wiring so should be able to run the permanent wiring to the back now. Just the indicator wiring to sort out cos the 03 harness and 03 switch don't match ummmm the joy..
Trina is home today so will be a short break in progress .

well been working away on the wiring and I think im about there, gave up trying to use the mx5 switches and bought some new rdx ones, chopped out the relavant wiring and rewired as I needed as per the new switches,
got the wiring down the tunnel and in the tub finished wrapped and clipped down, used a rdx relay for the hazards as it sees normal and led bulbs so have 4x ballast resistors if anyone needs them, waiting for some bits so went out and lined the passenger side, trimmed it with some maroon leather cloth and fitted some rubber matting , looks pretty good and a shame to dump stuff in there now, it looks like a car not a toolbox so tomorrow going to do the drivers side and rear panel behind the seats. waiting for harnesses to come then I can get the seats back in

Hi , made these "arm rests" to finish off the top edge of the sides aluminium U section, cut a length of pipe lagging in half and tuck it to the ali, trimmed it to fit and then covered it in the same leathercloth that I used elsewhere, seats are out and in the living room as I got my harness but the wrong bolts (my fault) so waiting for bolts to arrive

well sun is shining and its warm so more switch wiring all switches working symbols light up when lights turned on but no instrument lights, after much messing around find that you have to have the instrument dimmer switch wired in, don't know why, but its in now and all instrument / switch lights working
Trina decided that as it was nice she would come and help....... her idea was to see how it felt and sit looking pretty...... still she is happy and doesn't mind when I disappear for hours
