brake fluid resevoir and lambda sensor fitting,

i mounted the brake resevoir to the alloy bracket supplied by mnr with a large cable tie and riv nutted the alloy bracket to the footwell pannel.i then drilled a 20mm hole in the side pannel and fitted a 20mm grommet in the hole and fed the lambda sensor and wiring through the hole in a spiral flexible conduit and fed the lambda wiring and the brake fluid level wiring in the same conduit and p-clipped it along the scuttle pannel!

seats and harness mounting!

i have mounted the seats to the bases with 8 m6 bolts and mounted the seats to through bottom chassis mounts with 4 x 10mm bolts in each seat! secured in place by 10mm nyloc nuts and washers on the underside of the car, the seats needed mounting at the correct height so that the upper harness mounts are the same height as the holes in the rear of the seat!

the 4 point harnesses then just clipped on to the eye bolts, and the end result is looking good! the seats are a second hand westfield race seat which have a few tears in the side bolsters but i will re trim after IVA.

the lower harness mounts were also eye bolts,but they were bolted through the mounting brackets pre welded to chassis inbto the load spreading harness mounting plates on the underside of the brackets.these give a very strong fixing in the event of a crash

IVA side marker indicators and rear fog light fitment

I have squared up the rear fog light with an L-shaped alloy bracket and for IVA purposes, i have made a surround,again from alloy and covered with edge trim.

i have also fit the IVA friendly side markers to the outer edge of the front arch, these are a recessed flush fit and require a 20mm hole, i drilled them into the arch first,then drilled a 10mm hole into the bottom of the wingstay bracket and fed the wiring through the inside of the bracket insde a flexible wiring conduit. i then fixed some cable tie bases to the lower wishbone and cable tied the wiring and conduit to the lower wishbone!

bonnet catch fitment

i have also drilled and fixed the IVA friendly rubber bonnet catches, according to the guidelines which came with the kit. i used large headed 5mm rivets and they are a superb fit!

nose cone fitment!

i have finally got round to fitting the nose cone and bonnet in there final positions, i have drilled into the top chassis rail on each side of nose cone and inserted riv-nuts to fix the nose cone down. i then made 2 L-shaped brackets mounted on the under side of the steering rack mounts. i bolted an alloy strip along the back edge of the underside of the nose cone and bolted through the brackets to hold down the bottom. it has worked really well and there is no movement in the nose once top and bottom are fixed!
