This really is a labour of love. Impressive that you were able to marry up the new clocks with the Cossie bits and bobs...... Chris

Thanks pal , ive actually not cut anything (loom wise) yet , and with a bit of luck i wont need to. the only loom bits i think ill cut is the bits i simply dont need , but wont find out what they are until the car is up and running!

Mounting the battery box over to the left may cause a problem as the cosworth floor is slightly un even, hence being on the only flat spot in the boot!

If you moved the battery to the bottom left corner of the boot near the hatch, you would be able to fit more shopping then

Looks great, love the adapted MK2 FRS steering wheel
