    this is a pic from a car i was working on the other day ( AU FALCON ) with external speakers just cable tied to the lower steering shaft not the first and wont be the last dangerous install i see ,
    Many cars i see with LPG installed the control modules are sometimes just stuffed up under the dash or shoved under the centre console which works well for awhile until they start driving over train lines and pot holes , rough roads and shake the modules out or loose , one car i was road testing the module fell from its spot and jammed between the brake pedal and the firewall after crossing the train line , next time i went for the brakes it didnt want to stop to well until i shoved my size 13 hard on the pedal and crunched the module destroying the module and shorting the LPG system out , was cheaper the crunching the nose of the car at the time i thought unlike my boss who had other ideas . ( Prick he was anyway )

    Pedals... Sometimes feet. I also keep floormats there, accompanied by the stray maccas chip, 5c coin and general rubbish.

    i think it was a hiLux that came into my old work. had electric brakes fitted, but no aircon, fan etc. no one could work out was was going on, checked all the fuses, then i suggested checking the looms, pulled apart the dash, what do you know, no looms connected.
