buggerit - stuff got in the way again - the joys of working in IT

DVLA insisted I use a chassis number they gave me........

various wire rope accessories here

or you could just add a diode to the offending circuit....

these seem cheap enough..... link

but where /when are folks meeting up?????

Sure I saw a thread on this earlier but can't find it.... Going to try to make it so..... Where, when, how??? Who are going??

fairly easy job I used connectors like these vwp Best to have a large connector for all the wires going to the original panel then off to smaller connectors for each instrument. This way you can easily daisy chain the earth and +12V and lighting wire from connector to connector. For the Bright 6 i made a jig for drilling the holes - probably still lying around the garage - PM me if you want to borrow it. I needed to remove the oil light preesure switch to fit a proper sender - when I ordered the guages they sorted out any adaptor required. Got my guages from ETB - good service / reasonable price

one here flea bay a bit pricey though - didn't laserman used to make them with various logo's ????

another WELL DONE - enjoy...............

yes a £ sign might be more appropriate

works for both VWs, the Merc, and the Escort but not the Black Cab... where has the Peugeot gone? - son no.1 must have left it somewhere! ( I'm not that sad - it was time to juggle the cars so I can get out in the morning anyway - honest! )

sounds like a bad earth I'd try disconnecting what I'd changed to start and have a good look to check I'd not accidently 'knocked' off an earth somewhere

here is a link SVA manual

easiest not to have a windscreen at SVA as you then don't need demisters / wipers / screen wash. suspect you do need lights a quick search on this site should find you a link to the SVA manual.....

mine are - spring to the bottom - adjuster at the top no problems so far.......

helicoils have been my saviour on many an occasion

or wrap it in exhaust bandage ( helps keep the heat down in the engine compartment ) and if you want spray this with heat resistant alumium paint. Worked on mine - got the package of paint / exhaust wrap off ebay for not a lot of £££'s
