Put a fuse in line tho. Not sure what value. Start with 10A unless you can find out what size it should be.

I think so too.
Can yu post a pic of the passenger switch panel? Is it just 4 switches, or dies it have a stop logic device on the panel too?

I think yu were asking about floor/ sill section.
Here are some pics. Hopefully they are self explanatory!

Have yu you set it on fire yet?
The seat or the disco or the fender or all of the above? Haha
No! Seats fully working just waiting for an in-line fuse and bit of cable. Diff flange and service kit plus brake fluid and a new rear caliper kit is here. Might end up working over the weekend. Either that or the I’ll just stay up through tomorrow night and get it done.
Flange kit is britpart which actually looks well machined. I have a gen seal to go in it. I think I may do brakes first mood dependant. If I’m up for it I’ll do some more welding. I’ve started cutting box at angles to span from boot support cross members. Not bothering with a boot floor kit. Going to make the sides then have a removable centre section.
Rear door is also complete bar a couple grips.
Still got to cut sill remains out before doing floor. I got that mapped out in my head. It all depends how I feel and if I can be arsed to have a grinder in front of my nose. If I want to chill out I’ll just service it and do brakes

Fill the calipers up & lock off. There is a pipe with a 1way valve to bleed by yourself with a jar.

Until you realise the pipe has fallen off the nipple and you have just drawn air INTO the system

Yo been there too then
I got a length of rubber hose with a one way valve on it and used a cable tie to secure it to the nipple these days (there could be a joke to be had there
)I'm working on a swing away spare wheel carrier design at the minute and as the passenger side rear quarter panel is off I think I will take the opportunity to use the C post (3door, if it were a 5 door it would be D post
) to mount it and avoid the traditional way of a single spindle on a home made rear bumper. No time for a full bore bumper build and I just saw a spare wheel carrier on the back of an old KIA Sportage in the scrap yard that provided the inspiration for what is to come.I really like the rear door card you've knocked up, fold down shelf and a bit of storage, just need to get the stove stored there and you're golden for a brew

I picked up a great little brew stove from lidl for the farm for under a tenner!
Ill treat myself to a jetboil if I get out exploring more this year. I don’t want a big Coleman stove in there - I’ll have a little stove on the molle panel. Got first aid kit going on there too and a admin pouch.
I fixed the rear door today saying that. It was missing a rod from the mech for remote lock. Very strange. I made a new one and now it’s all working. Haven’t tested it with the fob though! The door panel is trickier than I thought to line up!
