got some stuff done today.

drilled the hole in the boot for the vp garnish, then rerouted the wires up inside the boot. didnt have the other end of the garnish plug so i just made my own with some flat connectors. garnish is ready to go on.

the loom runing along this quarter had no electrical tape, exposed solder, joins, **** everywhere. redid some of the connections then wrapped everything up. also rebuilt both tail light looms with some new sockets, and some i took apart completely and sanded the corrosion off and re-soldered some joins for better grounds. made 2 looms from 3 bad ones and 4 new sockets. took forever... so tail lights ready to go in, need globes...

also sorted out the plugs that had no home. fitted both brake switches and plugged in the crusie.

also ran an on/on switch to replace the override lock in the glovebox and hid it under the dash (sorry no pics of that ;) )

I like wires. Don't like paint though.
