For the step down, or if you know the draw current you could add a simple resistor (make sure you get a resistor that can cope with the power dissipation.)

This i got!

Didnt think of those. Was thinking a small 5v comm relay that can shift 12v through??
Im assuming with one of these i can do away with the relay and maybe power the actuator direct through this??


Ive aquired 10x ttp3 touch sensor pads for the switches. One issue is they do nt hold constant continual power which i why ive intergrated delay relays to theoreticaly cut power flow after short time.
The relays are omron h3y relays.

Those are some good prices where you getting theses parts from 👍👍👍👍

Eurocarparts, eBay, gumtree, burtons, clarkins and one or two members from here (for sale section).
I do have trade account with euro n clarkins but besides that I'm always looking for the lower price deal.
Helps when you have part numbers and are not over fussed by branding.
 
So i was looking for the clips to put back together a rear speaker pod and thought ill rip thrm off the spare pods but then realised this... image.jpeg

4mm allen bolts all the way round .. Genuine mold. :?
 
So a bit but not a lot done.... mostly body work
I now at this point have 'wing mirror' indicators - video coming soon!
Just as of today finished cutting and fitting 'ST Line' side vents... I do likely

Pictures coming soon
 
MK3 Mondeo Brake servo/Master Cylinder fitted!!! (as per pumanoob)
Yes it’s larger and Yes it fits nicely... and as said “with a little fettling” the Puma reservoir will fit!!

Only issue faced was the brake pipes... so my resolve was out the pipe clamps and scarily and slowly band and twist the original pipes into necessary angles.. a bit harder coz the battery is still in the bay at the mo!!

For those who wish to try..

So now to adapt bracket for brake hose... bleed system through... give disc a lil (special cleaning) formula... then heat her up n test it out (“after the first 15-20 miles as the pads are new and so need beding .. or so the safety text book goes” :pinkeye: :zzz: )
Me temporarily 14” steelys would actually fit with a spacer but why do that? I’ve taken out the redone SportKa wheels and loaded them up front...
 
Need to give her a proper wash over .... then (unfortunatley) she going back for some touch ups in the paint work...
AND TO CLEAN MY WHEELS THEY GOT OVER SPRAY ON!!
