This would be ideal for a roof panel, its closed cell foam absorber with mlv already stuck to it.

Love it.

 

I think I might go with this.

 

I'll have a measure up.

A fantastic morning with David from Wired By Wilson today.

 

The wiring was fed in a little while ago, but now he's put new terminals on the rear lights and it's all been tested.

 

I'll let the pictures do the talking

All the wiring is ready for the lights on the boot lid and the high level brake light too. 

 

Really pleased with it

Obviously there's a way to go yet, and this was just rigged up to test the wiring, but it means the roof lining and then rear glass can go in.

You could have taken a photo of the rubber boot completely fitted into the plug!

 

Slowly slowly its getting there, but the front is going to be more fun with an unusual twist...

I re- built this a few years ago, used it for a while then parked it up in a mates garage due to space issues

 

 

Here it is today, it needs to go to pay to finish the mini

Starting to plan the dash

I've made this template out of cardboard to sort out the fuse box layout.

Are you going for a flat dash or something different?

In the last few weeks there have been a lot of discussions around the design of the fuse box for my mini. 

 

After a few ridiculous impulse purchases I found something which will hopefully do the job

 

IMAG1410_zps2vom19f9.jpg

It's from a 2004 Fiesta

 

So, I stripped out all the wires to just leave the buzz bars so that we know what we've got to work with

Leaving this as the starting point for the wiring.
