If I had known earlier mate wouldn't have been an issue. I'm not too sure when I'll be going back down to the dealer again as it's about 6 miles from me and I've made about 5 trips to them in the last 2 weeks to get info and part numbers.
I was actually speaking to a signwriter the other day to get some exact decals made up for the Cav, so I'm now also thinking to get some direct copies of these warning stickers made seeing as I have an original one right here for them to take images of.
Sounds good matey :)

Cheers anyway Mark :)
UPDATE
After dinner I felt rather energised so I decided to go in the garage to continue the exciting adventure of wiring and loom wrapping lol
Before I continued with where I left off, I noticed the indicator and wiper stalk looms bare and unwrapped. Couldn't leave it like that now could I? So I wrapped them...
Before

Must say that it's really tidied up the area under the column :) Very pleased with that. Only took about 5 mins to get it wrapped but it's made a world of difference.
I then continued with where I left off... the alarm, central locking, remote locking looms.
This was how the central locking loom looked like before it was wrapped with two new bullet connections (tbh it was much worse than this, the pic below shows it after a bit of rearranging of the wires to seperate them)

As the remote locking loom connects to the central locking control unit I had to replace the earth connector and get that wrapped ready to connect to the central locking loom.

Finally I thought I'd start working on the alarms main loom. By now all that upside down, on my side, looking up into the back of the dash, laying down made me rather dizzy and screwed up my shoulder and neck.
I thought 'sod this' and called it a day.
I know the update shows things done rather speedily, it took about 3 hours in total with lots of faffing around, profanity and patience!
Shall continue tomorrow.
Get them scotch locks off. Looks nice and tidy, nice work.
Cheers Benn.
Them two scotch locks will probably stay for now, very tricky to solder as I need more than two hands and the way the garage is at the mo and the Nova only accommodating one person isn't ideal (trust me I tried it nearly ended up burning my clothes lol).
Maybe when the car is out the garage and running I'll get a hand and solder them up.
Nice work Tek. As you say it makes all the difference. Would it not be easier to pull the loom(s) out of the car and work on it on a bench/the ground though?
Here's some inspiration for when you think you have a lot to deal with. lol

That's what I removed from the donor loom for the Volvo conversion. That's a 6ft dia table also. The rubbish wiring bag weighed about 9-10kg when finished. lol
Keep on truckin! lol
