Ash did you write a parts list etc?

[AshG]

its pretty simple to be honest. put all the electrical bits on the car then run the wires between them

there is a posability that there will be a write up on it in complete kit car in the coming months. Keep your eyes open.

I am using the donor loom, I just used masking tape to mark each connector and took photos of all the connections and pulled the thing out as a single unit. I then wrapped the connectors in freezer bags in groups according to what they were and where they go in the car. It should be easy enough to split out the bits that aren't needed.

I think you are too organised! I unwrapped the mile of loom today that was stored in trailer! I wish I had taken a little more care now to label and bag it all! But as for most. We need the space back!

Possibly but hopefully the 30 minutes extra it took to label and bag everything will save loads of time later, also I think it is better to be too organised rather than not organised enough especially as my memory seems to reset each time I sleep.

Hi, i agree with ash g it cant be that difficult to make your own loom.
i would say if you look at each item separately it will be quite simple.
for example do the engine first then lights then horn, wipers, heater etc
obviously the more you do at once the more complicated it will seem.
the donor loom is always going to look complicated as theres so much thats not going to be used : leccy windows, sunroof, interior lights speakers, abs, heated screen,rear wash/wipe radio, headlamp wash/wipe the list goes on. anyway thats my opinion, im sure someone will be along in a mo to criticize but they always do.
