While wielding the wire cutters, I decided to fit the rear lights. They had to be wired up internally before fitting. There are 3 fixing holes in the rubber and light unit, and there is only one way theses will line up, no idea why. Using masking tape, the holes can be marked and then drilled 2.2mm to take 3mm self tappers.
Using some left over metal rod from the fuel sender, the rubber sleeve was fed over the lens and the chrome cover. I greased the inside of the cover to help protect against water corrosion that is sometimes seen. Well it wont hurt.
Cabling is pretty straight forward. I'm waiting to get the fog/reverse light mounts to enable fitting them.
Also siliconed some tie holders to the body to tidy the cable run to the lights. The self adhesive ones wont be accepted as the can be easily pulled off so a more permanent solution is needed without drilling through the outside skin.
