They are a temporary stop bolt behind the accelerator and clutch pedals, once the cables are connected and all running I will then machine two pins from round bar, and not bolts, that are adjustable stops but definitely long enough to come through the nyloc nut. You may also notice that the bolt is to long on the 3 way connector which the switch is screwed into, that will be cut down, but behind it there is a small amount of washers to push it away from the bulk head, these will be changed for a solid spacer as I hate using multiple washers to gain clearance. :)

Well, I managed to get the last section of solid pipe in to link the front to the rear, guess which idiot forgot to take photos to post up on here, maybe it was something to do with removing an MX5 engine this afternoon before the shell goes off next week for a full roll cage to be fitted.
I will take some photos tomorrow and post them on here.

looks good and I bet it feels good to be making some progress, Keep the pictures coming :)

Cheers Gary, yeah it does feel good, trying to push on this week as i'm on leave next week. I need the break but I could do with more time on the car.

I know that you want to push on (and we want you to as well) but sometimes a wee break can help focus the mind and help with the planning ahead also keeps the boss happy lol

I think I have one pipe done on mine ~ 2 years ago....

Will get back to it , life has taken a zig-zag in the last few weeks two funerals and 1800 unexpected miles of driving in 3 weeks. Puts me back in a frame of mind to get back to doing things and getting on with stuff.
