Hi John,
It is always a pleasure to get pictures of your car and what you have done
to it. If the yellow color is as beautiful in real life as it is in the
pictures the car must be magnificent.!
My fuse panel is a little different but I will take another look when I get
home tonight. I like where you have put it, it would be much better for
access.
I obviously will run some of the wires that will be buried i.e. dome light
but I don't want connect all of the instruments and then have to remove them
again for the upholstery work.
As far as mixing up my kitchen project with the car, well if I try to start
the car and the dishes get washed I guess I've done it right.
Thanks again
Rolf

See the attached image to see how I've done it. This area is normally
covered
with a quick release cover in the same style as the interior.
I've included images of wiring through the bulkhead (firwall suggests it
has some fire retardent properties!) and the area where the dynamo
control
box would have been.

ummm. You might regret that but let me know how you get on anyway!

don't get them confused!
