Hi All, update time !! - yeah I know its been a long time coming but a lot has happened since last time ;)

So following on from the initial build of the new front arms, whilst waiting to get the laser cutting done (and finishing the design for the laser cutting in the first place) i thought I would sort the wiring loom and put in a couple of multi pin connectors so I can extract the engine - so the 3d printer got to work with a couple of mounting plates and shrouds

and a back cover

Then a little work on the alloy plate behind the passenger seat

now you can see the idea the curved shroud goes in behind the passenger seat to protect the sockets and wiring

and the mounting plate bolts on the other side with the connectors in place

Then there was a hell of a lot of wiring too do and I decided to ditch the now almost empty fuse box in favour of a small after market one
Lots of wire arrived

and new fuse box wired

then making up the extension to the bulkhead and newly printed mountings

printed some supports to hold the original relay panel and the new fuse box

and finally with the fuse box mounted ontop ready to be bolted down in the dashboard module
