Is a dim dip resistor needed? The cub shell never had one on but my replacement loom has the connector for it.

This arrived today. Didn't fancy welding an extension on the gear lever so thought sod it. Every mini (or mini derived alternative) should have some KAD on it. Shouldn't it? Extended (14cm more than standard) KAD quick shift for mokes.

Not having an exhaust tunnel made it a bit easier to do the side bolts. Had to take the rod change off the car though to drift the pins out.

Good work. I love the attention to detail on this. And its just the right level of mad!
How did you open up the Tim gauge? I want to get rid of the ‘TURBO’ on mine since it’s supercharged; but I was too scared of breaking it.

I just gently prised round the rear of the bezel with a small screwdriver and then round again with a larger one until I could squeeze past the lip. I bought an old knackered one off eBay to practice firstly. I will try a Smiths bezel on it to match the others.
