New carbon fibre dash in.

Easy job?

Just swap the wires onto the new switches and off you go. NO.

2 wires on 6 terminals, wiper switch working the wrong way (switch on, wipers off. Switch off, wipers on)

Side lights on, no headlights. Sidelights off,headlights on.

Got everything working by trial and error, put the dash in and the loom was under the hoop. Everything off and loom moved above hoop and plugged back in. Everything working so dash fitted. Start the car, and it won't start. A few choice words, well quite a few really, and I've come in for a coffee. 

The dash looks good, but not much different to the old one. 

Everything was working fine  so why did I change it? Because that's what we do. 

 

Fun times  

 

Looks good, but a question for you. I bought one of those rear view mirrors but it wouldn’t work as it hit the windscreen. I shortened the stalk on it but still no good. I see you have somehow mounted it further to the rear so it works, can you post a pic up so I can see why you did? Thanks 👍

I shortened the stalk too, and used a piece of ABS to move it rearwards and away from the screen. I'll get a photo tonight.

@fatblokestu.

Here's how I mounted the mirror.

Glad to see you enjoying your new car Rob.

Seaton at a guess?

Just waiting for some more carbon to arrive from Ash @Rednop1 and Mark, and plotting a fancy F1 style steering wheel 🙂

It's the first time I have ever had the car on the road at this time of year. Since it wasn't raining I decided to go for a run. Just a little 'nearly twilight' blast over the moors to Chatsworth, then Bakewell, on through Rowsley, up Rowsley Bar (which was very greasy on the hairpins) and back home. There was a fair amount of muck and running water on the roads, especially at Haddon Hall car park, where a motorbike leading a group had hit the mud on a corner and then slid under an oncoming van. Luckily he looked to be up and walking about but traffic was manic as a result.

Lost light whilst cleaning.
