good work scott, harnesses look cool now.
Good to see the misfire is sorted mate!
Had today off so use it to get some things done on the Nova.
first up was F/G Boot, it need the 4mm plexi glass cutting then fitting into the rubber seal
So...
Got the plexi glass out, placed it onto the ground, placed the boot on top of it, and marked the opening in the corners/top bottom
then removed it and place masking tape over it thats wide enough to take the base plate of a Jigsaw, then dropped the boot back on top, marked the opening so it's exactly in-line as you look through the opening.

You then need to add on roughly 6-7mm, so mark this around the first line, as the window sits in the rubber/on over the opening you see.

Put the P'glass Perspex in the rubber seal, then place it upside down on a table etc, place the F/G boot on top of it, then using something like a tea-spoon handle (as me and my dad did) you will need two of you to do this, press the boot down onto the glass seal while prising the rubber up and over the lip with the end of the tea-spoon handle (using some water/grease is optional to help it over) i opted for spit! lol
Took us about 10 mins to place it in, might take it out to paint the boot, but no fussed right now..

Then found my locking type bonnet/boot catches out, just checked to see if they would fit/work, should do with some fettling etc.

Weighed in at 7.8 Kgs without the locks, so 8.0Kgs when finished i think.
Also today after doing the boot i though just before it gets dark I'll sort something thats been bugging me for a while now.
The dash lights have been only working on the top right by the rev counter, and no ware els! So driving at nights fun, as i had no idea what speed i was doing (although the gages read out)
