I can cut it out if you want it (for free), I'll just stick it in an envelope and post it, just let me know.

Sorry missed this earlier, thanks for the offer but I've ordered the switch, I didn't really want to alter the dash, keeping it very minimal.

Ah yes, see what you mean, I would use 1/4 inch rubber edging trim on those.
Was any thing else on the failure sheet? If so can I have a look?
Cheers Ian

The failure sheets looks like war & peace but it's not really that bad, it's all cosmetic none 2.5mm radius's mainly. The only mechanical thing was the brackets for my handbrake were flexing & they didn't like that so I've had to beef them up. There was little bits of wiring that weren't in sleeving that could chaf, the pipe i had used between brake resivior & master cylinder wasn't marked so they wanted a specification sheet on it, I'm not able to supply one so chainging it for one I can. I had used clear braided fuel line & they want that changed. All little niggly things, have you had yours SVA'd yet? if not & you can getthere I would reccomend Nottingham, although they failed it on quite a number of things it was all very fair.

If you want to follow my progress i'm trying to keep a thread updated on muddybuggies.com

Carlisle used to be relaxed but I take all mine to newcastle now. I know what keeps them happy and I have to get a first time pass or it costs me money.

Well hats off to Holden, switch has just arrived, only thing is it's different to the other two now, it is far more radius'd than them, hope they don't notice difference & fail the other two. LOL
