That looks very good, also on my list to do. Not attempting it myself though.

Agreed mate, it's way too complicated for me tbh, beanie's done a cracking job of tidying it all up and minimalising it as well

Hello Josh! Back again with a nice update!
The body loom is now pretty much complete!
Tail section of loom all taped up and looking tidy
Fusebox with fog light relay fitted
Front section of loom all taped up
Red wire is battery feed, but I don't know the length at the moment
Dash area of loom
Fusebox area
Close up of taping
All whilst withstand a prelonged attack from Notdog
All thats left now is to do the dash switch and dial loom
Put a feed to the fog light fuse (JUST remembered I haven't put this in)
Replace or tidy radio wiring

You've done a cracking job Beanie, looks as fresh (if not fresher) than OEM! Will be a real asset to the car when it's all in and working

It definitely is, once you get stuck into a loom it really does take a long time to organise it all!

True - although beanie made a great point - he's making this and then Beanie/sam/dad are fitting it back in with the dash etc so I wont actualy get to see his handy work as most of it will be covered behind the dash / wing / carpet lol

I'm not really a fan of plastic side windows, slight weight saving yes, but slight and the loss of comfort/convenience, even on a competition car, is barely worth it.

door poly windows are a pain in the arse when it comes to toll roads/car park gates and make the car like a green house
plus not legal on the road in the UK
