Ive gotta say with the lights/grill/paint and wheels thats going to be one bad ass looking car buddy.😉

Can i jump on this too..... My starter on the Essex v6 looks exactly the same and has the 3 connections.... every so often it just clicks then starts after a few attempts or a whack..... mine also has had an electronic ignition installed so am i right in saying to test this out just disconnect the 3rd black wire and leave the Black/Yellow Trigger wire on and the Big Red on only and all should work?

probably too many square light units on the front with spots too but would look out of this world...😁

Your a gem.... thanks... i better start saving...lol PS... you can get carello square spot lights... insyead of the round ones😉

i was too eager..... ive read on... Bellows .... Doh.... were did you get em from they look new???😁👍

Can I ask what the part number/name is of your Door To A Pillar Rubber Wiring boot is?? Ive got speaker wires and alarm wires there and no boot😒

Thats very neat❤❤❤

Im gonna say it because i thought it ... then realised im probably gonna regret it🤣🤣🤣.... I never knew they did a Mk5 2 door estate! Yep after a quick google and a quick flick though some posts i realised what this beast is.....I couldnt resist telling you what passed through the single brain cell though🤦‍♂️. It reminds me a bit of a black Mk4 Escort 2 Door Estate i once had (and loved) with gold XR3 wheels.... it got hit in the rear, the side window popped out (because he bent the shell after hitting me at 60) and skated down the road... i picked it up scratched to hell but not broke😂.... those side windows are huge....😜

Craig as always you are a gem..... i will PM you so i can get details and ping you some cash.😉 I suppose it aint needed now it dont need an mot but im uneasy about the dim lights at best never mind the lack of a fog light if the weather turns...🤦‍♂️

Chaps... in my quest to sort these rear lights on the SA Mk5 i pulled the wiring connectors off and noticed no wiring to the fog circuit, the plug has the place for it and the light cluster has the normal UK euro spec bulb holders including the fog bulb holder, and the metal strips to the plugs but no wire in the plug. So i had a dig under the dash and cant find a fog switch either... Im assuming im looking for the yellow/amber switch?? Where would the switch normally be? and off which circuit should i take a live feed? I do have a Mk 5 wiring diagram and it looks like the feed is taken from the same feed to the panel light dimmer switch. I assume therefore its on the sidelight circuit? Anyone done this on an import before?😉👍

yesp... had a few of them..... then purchased a 1.6 gl escort.... i thought id won the lottery.🤣

lol... brother inlaws heat exchangers were so rotted we had exhaust fumes in the beetle he had..... had to drive round with the windows open so we didnt die at the lights.🤦‍♂️

Neither has my Land Rover but it comes out of hibernation when it eventually snows..🤣🤣🤣... The joys of demisting with an old rag and a cassette box as a scraper🤦‍♂️

thanks chaps i will get digging this weekend.....😊👍
