your mini truely does hate you doesnt it luke

my wireing is odd, my right front indicator had no earth, and was still working perfectly.
and my headlights work fine if i take the green wire out the pink relay, but if i put it in, they *melon* up again :s

Mabe you should, like, mesure stuff before you buy it? then kick there asses when they *melon* up?

[sweetser]

Yeah but... i thought the bloke selling the brakes knew what size they were so i thought i didnt have to measure.. but obviously not, so now i need to get these discs machined down so i can use them as im not paying £90 for a pair of vented 7.5'' discs of KAD so now to find a machine shop...

Earths through the body of the indicator?


Bad luck about the discs sweetster. Come on pull your finger out so you can finaly drive the thing.

The indicator earth wire is there because if you're fitting it to GRP front/panel - there's nothing for the mounting screws to earth through.

[sweetser]

You cant beleive how much i want it on the road, its been say there since last may haha

[sweetser]

Got the subframe today just poly mounts and the brake bits to get now

[sweetser]

Right well me and sam went up minispares today (after he robbed my radiator lol) and we got all the bits we needed apart from the polymounts which were out of stock and nuckle joints which we forgot untill we were basically home. So we come back and started fitting the radius arms and camber brakets to the subframe to find out that we wernt given enough bolts to do both sides so we done one and left it at that, and put sams new radiator in and recovered his dash and put his new gauge in
