Yes its an inline one under the scuttle panel. Shared with hazards so if they work that's not the problem!

its days like these you think of selling, then you get it running and think why would I ever sell it... currently on the sell idea with two rusted exhaust bolts and a lost dremel!

having spent the last 4 hours under the car griding off rusted exhaust bolts, to discover the original cat had welded studs I'm about to take the grinder to the whole of the car and sell it for its weight in metal! But then tomorrow I will have sorted the exhaust and all will be cool and groovy!

Not that hard, just remember to remove: Battery line, fuel line, brake line, exhaust. Did it with no experience, luckily had no trouble just it rusted to the floor -.-

Removing them is easy, its removing them in a way that the mini and frame and be reconnected that is the tricky part.
