Not much going on at the moment. But as some of you know there is the new requirement from the MSA for head controll. This means I need to think about adding a belt bar. Ok until the seat is back in angles can't be worked on but it is not as bad as I first thought.

In the meantime the trailer is back together.

Will not go where I thought it would go.
But it is wrong for where it will go.

Electrics. You got to love them. But first I need to make the hardware to fit the switches and fuse box.

The fuse box has LEDs that light up when a fuse blows. Makes it easy to see why something might not be working.

Need to make up something nice to get the later gearstick gaitor to cover the early remote. As it sits a little further back in the car.

Love the fuse box


You can get the blade type fuses that have built in LEDs as well to use in your standard (non Mini) fuse box.

Time for some C.A.D. work now. Might have sorted the front end as well.

With this from ABS. just need to know the width and height.
