Did you work out a way to go back another inch or two?

Yep both wires joined, I didn’t know if it was directional so just soldered it in and hoped for best


Before it cut out on release of key


Handy for anyone googling

10A Schottky Worked a treat !!


Nice one

Oh ok so they are fitted directional, 10A you say for coil system, I’ve learned something new today cheers

Just for arguments sake, if you were really desperate and, post apocalypse say, it was the only starter motor in the world, you could simply put a 10A Schottky diode in the wire to the coil and then join them? Would cost you about 50p. Simples! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283186713698?hash=item41ef3...

Sorry I’m replying as have same issue found the loose wire with no where to plug in and car starts on release of key

Surely that’s just a extra wire from cranking terminal to the coil

So just join the spare wire to the other one so both go to same terminal

Standard leather seats and frames I’m using

I think the plan is to drop a seat to my friends and he’s going to work it out snd choo reeled it so it’s a inch atleast lower be £50 or whatever he will charge me well spent

Yes in mine I can clench my fist and slide that under the seat when fitted!

Sorry for long time to reply I don’t seem to get notifications

I can’t see any reason why tho

If clearance was a issue I’d understand but plenty room there

It’s 2.8 runners they are just higher

Exactly

But why are they so high looks like loads room underneith

I try to upload pics but it says to large

Lol it’s the actual door arm rest


I have read it’s because the seat bases are a lot higher on my model?

Had a mk2 ghia before no issues Just bought a 280 and I find the seat so high, my leg also traps a bit by the door handle I know my mk2 seats were softer saggier but this is neigh on uncomfortable 😢 Seat is deffo all the way back Is there anything I can do modification wise? And yes going on a diet ...
