Where did you get the braiding for the loom?
And the rubber finishes for the ends of the plugs ? The injector plugs etc I think ?

So we decided to change the clutch for a helix 6 paddle same as whats in my 3dr so it will cope with the power ok with no issue, got it from matt lewis again and fitted it today
Also decided to go hydraulic clutch aswell, but as we already have a peddle box we are converting it so it will take the hydraulic version
as it is now
and with the new piece fabricated and ready to weld on
Get this welded on then we have to modify the peddle aswell
