past you in an orange CSR / no bonnet (long story) g'day :)

a real pain and I have lowered floors and it is still a pain. Have seen an extension on a car but it looks asthetically unpleasing. No idea where you can get one from. I was tempted to lose it and just get by with the sides mirrors or sit on a large cushion. :)

They are available from CC subject to stock and you coud also give BMTR in Brum a call. Avon will continue to make these and are not moving to the ZZS as rumoured. Dean

Polished £594 new small dent on underside but can't be seen when fitted on ebay cheers Dean

indeed - thanks both :)

He figured as an intermittant fault it was a cable rubbing. As issue seems to become worse when car warm - rubbing against engine/g-box etc He just followed the loom from back to front and looked for the first place where it could rub which was towards the top of the gearbox (and which would warm up) - pulled out gearbox gaitor to see the loom as it came up to the top of the box and you could clearly see where the tape wrapping the loom at rubbed - the bolt head was sharp. New fuse - pushed the loom against the bolt head - fuse popped - result. £50 Guys name Min 07970614034 based in Sheldon Birmingham.

Loom passes rear to front over top of gearbox - loom rubbed on one of thr 4 bolts holding gearlever into box - short Voila!

Tried that Mark but blows those as well. Lost the will to live with it so an auto electician booked for Friday morning! :) I figure it's horses for courses and he will sniff out the issue in minutes...

Thanks Gents Have got through 15 or so fuses so far - will keep at it! Give me any problem apart from an electrical one!

Got it Tim - new fuse - ignition off - all OK. Turn side lights off - start car - all OK side lights work. Turn lights off - start car - all lights OK However Turn lights on and start car - fuse blows ; or if leave lights on working and turn ignition off - fuse blows

Difficult to say for sure Tim, I would have to go out again and see. When you do put a new fuse in after it's been on a run to replace the blown one and turn the side lights on it just blows the fuse instantly. If I stick a new fuse in tomorrow morning when it's cold, it will work fine in isolation or with the engine running. As soos as it goes out for a run - blows.
