Re: wiring for ignition barrel

Thanks Nate you are a star! Will check ye olde haynes bible. I was gonna take the barrel off anyway as they have knacked the steering lock so I guess I can get a proper look at it then, it's a bit awkward to get behind there when the barrel is in it's place.

Re: lower suspension Q
