Thanks. Your drawing is correct. Only the connector numbers in my switch are not the same as in the wiring diagram.

I cut off the extra wires not used in a standard transmission MK2.

Hi, I have problems connecting wirings to the light switch. It should be quite easy but all diagrams show connector numbers above 10 and mine has all numbers below 10 (7 in total). Has anyone this kind of light switch? It should be original for a 1965 MK2 2.4 Liter (LHD/Export/Non-USA) model. See pi...

I guess that is the same part:

Part No: BD10313 Rear bumper rubber clip
MK1, MK2, 240, 340, Daimler V8 2.5,Daimler V8 250, S-Type & 420, E Type

I ordered them from SNG Barrett and cost 0.22£/pcs.

I noticed the good hint but too late for me :oops: Main probem is that I replaced my car's outer sills with new ones and thus would have to remove those strings anyway. Here is my plan (!): a. There is a whole at the rear of the sill (rubber plug in wheel arch) which gives you a straigh line without...

One picture tells it all. I would have never figured out the correct installation without this picture.

Thanks a million times!

I found an original Smith's crank up antenna and now I'm not sure where place the unit. This version has a rotating arm - not a stick as seen in some pictures. a. Under the dash on the driver's side? b. On side of the radio console on the opposite side of driver? c. Elsewhere? Any help appreciated a...

Rewiring project is waiting for me too - I'm a littele nervoud about this. One detail question: how did you manage to 'pick up' wires from the loom going to center pillars (light+hand brake)?

I finally found the color code for my Opalescent Gun Metal gray from here. It's Standox's Wizard type color selector application - quite handy. http://www.sxcolor.info/scripts/colorinfo.dll/category?b=1&m=001&l=3&flow=special If you use some other paint manufacturer your paint dealer can perhaps con...

Here is a link to pages where you can see my 'pipes'. Unfortunately the bleed nipples are at the bottom of the piston from June 1964 up. This positioning is a critical choice when you make the bridging pipes! http://www.ids.fi/mk2_partimages.htm#RearBrakes At the moment I have all nipples at top whi...

Hi, I replaced all seals etc. to the door frames. Now the problem is that the sliding windows are extremely tight in the 'groove' and you need a lot of force to get them moving. The seal seems to be correctly installed - fits nicely into the frame groove. Are they different types of seals for MK2 or...

Sorry. I misunderstood your question as was thinking the identifying plate. Keep looking for the answer as this issue is actual for me too!

I just finished polishing all the glasses excluding the windscreen. As an idiot I had stored it so that I had cracked :oops: Actually the most amazing result came when I polished the sliding glasses in the doors. They are always very scratchy (sand tends to get inside the weather strip and as the gl...

Here is a link to my MK2 projects home pages describing how to do it.
Cost for 'new' windscreen and all the glasses will be around 7 GBP!

Visit again after a few weeks as the windscreen has not being polished yet.

I just replaced all brake pipes for my 2.4 and made the pipes by myself. I also had a ready set but this was waste of money. All pipes are just cut to length and had connectors. Even the lengths were not correct. It was easier for me to make the pipes from standard pipe (3/16" I quess) and bend it s...

Which year's model is yours? Mine is 1965 LHR and the decal is in a 'funny' place: left hand side, below the fuse/regulator unit.

The surface there is not flat so the decal must be bent to follow up the side form - no problem as the decal is aluminium.
