I'm still waiting for the DVLA, only been a week but I'm keeping busy with stuff I wanted to do but wasn't a priority. I'm putting together some stuff to make a small boot and rear arch stone guards. Meanwhile I have been installing an early oil sender and gauge from a JDM binnacle, measures in kg/cm2 rather than psi, kg/cm2 coverts nicely to bar.
Later cars come with a dummy gauge hooked up to a switch and no warning!
So I've also added an adjustable pressure switch which lights up a big LED light on the dash and sounds a 90db reversing buzzer. Lol! I've also added an overheating LED which is triggered by the rad fan coming on but no alarm, as if I'm stationary it would be very annoying.
My shift light is in also and sits in the flat of the aero screen so it is easily viewable and I've started installing illuminating dash switches for the horn, indicators, brake test, side, dip, main, etc, which match my hazard and fog switches. Once my dash is finished I'll be getting a weld on QR steering boss.
So I have plenty to be getting on with over the long weekend.
Still enjoying the build!
