I've just bought the conversion loom from minispares, you can have a look at that if you like?

I was gonna get one because they make life a lot easier but I've spent enough now and I'm on a tight budget so I'm sure I can get that harness matched up to my loom wasnt sure if someone had already done it then they could shed some light for me??

We doing then meet next month aswell?

Yes don't use solder..... it really is not a good wire connection method within a car, due to the very fact that as you solder the joint some solder will wick up the wire and cause a brittle joint, as the car vibrates (mainly secondary harmonics - road undulations coupled with engine oscillations) causes the joint to fatigue
