    A custom one would probably be a lot more expensive than something like this though? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Classic-Mini-Wiring-loom-late-carb-models-rear-section-only-/371075827385?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model:Mini|Plat_Gen:MK+I&hash=item5665d7c6b9

    baring in mind that was done by hand in about 20 minutes it's not too bad haha. I'll man up and get a rotary on it, then some polish etc.

    It will come up well with a proper mop. Also try a finer paste

the wire to the middle pin on my alternator plug was melted off and not attached, would this have been the reason it wasn't charging my battery?

    if a wire on a mini wasn't needed for something. there's pretty high chances it wouldn't be fitted in the first place.

2 snapped studs in the block whilst changing the manifold on the polo :( totally ruined my plans of sorting it out to sell it this week like i desperately need to. don't know how to sort it now

    I can get the manifold off still, but there's less than 5mm protruding, so I don't think anything will get on them will they?

I need to use windscreen cover on my insurance to replace the screen, I'm not renewing the policy when it finishes in 6 days, reckon I can still get the screen replaced? They don't know i'm not renewing yet..

    They should be fine, I think you can get LED ones like that which would be better.

    problem with LED's as indicators is that they then need resistors or they flash too fast. I'm trying to do something discrete and easy, as they're only going on to please mot/vosa, if it was my way, my nice new wings would be hole free!
