It's exactly 2 years since I first saw the Fury at Stoneleigh. The JPSC are having a get together up there but I'm not going until the car is SVA'd. On Bank Holiday Monday I got the indicators and hazard warning lights working using the relay and connectors I found on Sunday plus I tidied up some wiring. We found that we had run out of spade male terminals (why are there always more females? I'm not complaining mind) so I moved on to the dash area. I had decided from reading other blogs and posts that a heater is probably unnecessary due to the heat soak through the footwells so we'll go with hair dryers for demist. I therefore cut a sheet of 2 mil ally and blanked off the heater gap in the scuttle which you can see above. I also decided to buy a CBS aluminium header tank, and that can sit on the scuttle where the heater was going to go, leaving plenty of room for the electrics. Lastly I started getting the indicator and light stalks refitted, then the dash. The dash blank needed widening at the steering column area. I then tried fitting speedo, warning lights and instruments but the warning lights pr
oved invisible behind the steering column so I cut out a space where the heater would have been. Not very neat so far but I'll tidy it up next time. Have to get side repeater connectors from a scrappy. It appears they are standard and SVC don't sell them.
