Whats the difference between the cooper and cooper S mk2 and mk3
I want a wiring loom that fits a alternator has speedo and rev counter behind steering wheel
The ignition switch headlight and washer switches in the centre and just the sigle stalk on the steering colume ??? Any ideas or am i going to have to modify it myself

You have 2 looms in mind with a combination of both there, the mk3 wont have wiring for a speedo/rev counter in front the driver but has a single stalk and the correct switch wiring.  a mk2 loom is older still but similar, a mk4 loom will have the speedo/rev counter wiring in front the driver, but will have the twin stalk and totally different wiring for the switches.

 

Its easier to use a single stalk wiring harness and modify it to work the dash lights/rev counter wiring, than change a 2 binnacle in front the driver clocks, back to a mk3 single stalk loom.

Kernow - what about a Mk3 early 1275GT loom?

It was a single stalk and 3 gauge pack in front of driver in those...

Forgot that one, in the very early ones they were, only issue is where the 2 looms join might take a bit of switching about, but as its only a minor job to entent the dash wiring either a mk3/early 1275 should do the trick. But depending on ones wiring skills you could make the modifications in less than a hour so which ever way is easiest for the OP.
