I'm actually a bit worried about that too. Was considering if it's worth putting it in stands so I can run it up before refitting all the floor and seat panels.

Ok thanks, just checking. I've known Mr Haynes to massively exaggerate jobs in the past!

On a series 3, because obviously I'd rather not!

Oops, should have checked the Speedo cable route first. Nevermind dash is out now. At least I get a good look at my surprisingly intact bulkhead! This dropped out from behind: it's unfired so 'live' not sure how to dispose of such a thing. The red indicator 'E' had no bulb in. There's...

So A definitely says "brake" I've been digging a bit further and found.. a wiring nightmare. I was trying to take the lower dash off to get access to the Speedo cable. But a bunch of these wires come through a cut hole in the tray that sits in the dash.

Hey don't worry about it. I just feel bad that I've been in this forum for all of five minutes and started a war! This is what happens in cycling forums when people start talking about wearing helmets 😁

oops, sorry double posted!

Thanks for the suggestions, I've got a spare wheel on the bonnet so there's a bunch of space on top of the middle of the dash that wont be obscuring the road at all! I only use it for navigation, I've a terrible sense of direction. With a dedicated satnav, aside from having to buy another...

Hello, I've just bought an ex-mod series III and am trying to work out what all of the switch positions and indicator lights are supposed to do. Not helped by the fact that there's definitely some dodgy electrics going on! A - what is this indicator for? whatever I do it doesn't seem to...

Ah thanks, I found it, page 330! Not quite accurate to mine, I guess because of the militaryness. I'll ask in that specific section. thanks!

Hello, I just got a series 3 and am looking for suggestions for a good mobile phone holder that mounts to the dash. In the past I've always used brodit clips but they don't make one for the series 3, I tried their defender one and it wont fit.

Thanks for the link to the manuals, is there a Series III Instruction manual out there as a pdf? I'd like to know what all the indicator lights and switches on the dash are for :D

Pics I can do. It actually has an MOT at the moment until August, hopefully it passes it's next and last one!

Picked up a 1984 ex-military series III (109") last week. She's a bit rough but was cheap and I'm handy enough at fixing stuff. I'm in Cambridgeshire and bought it from the South Coast. The two front tyres were scary looking so I had them changed before driving it back. The ones that came...
