Do your relays click when you operate the relevant function? If they do, then the issue is probably the relay output wiring but if they don't, it's the switched feed to the relay.
What harness are you using, the original Ford one?
Wiring for the wipers is in this thread.
All the other wiring info will be on the forum somewhere, you need to use the search facility and be fairly specific with the search terms.
Just thickening the floor won't increase the stiffness as much as adding some angle. All you'd be doing is adding weight. I think you're better off just keeping the normal floor and using angle or box across the floor where the front and rear seat fixings go through.

I've been made aware of a Kaig for sale but have very few details other than it was build by Robin Hood from an MG Metro donor and was the promo vehicle for their launch.
If anyone is interested, message me and I'll pass your details on.

Entrance to the pub car park is off the A452 Chester Road heading North 50 yards from the island.
If you've just got your MOT and possibly been remapped, I expect to see you in in it......
Just saying!
Can't you swap the rose joint and adjuster for a rose joint with a female threaded end. It won't be as easy to adjust but it's not like you're adjusting it regularly.
Most people SORN their cars over the winter, I'm pretty sure someone could lend you a set for the test. What width and ET are the current wheels and how wide are the tyres?
I like wiring but even I wouldn't make a harness from scratch. You need to be a special kind of masochist to want to do it when they're available off the shelf for not a lot of money.
There shouldn't be any relays on the side lights and they should be battery fed, not ignition (so they can be left on for parking).
What harness do you have?
Flush would be OK. If the bezels protrude less than 3.2mm, the edges just need to be blunted rather than a 2.5mm radius that is required if the protrusion is more than 3.2mm
