The everlasting ph1 ITB Build **GREEN-BUILD STARTS AT PAGE 100**

Re: someph-ing different...........

yep bin the little box.


for light. follow the loom from airbag ecu to where it joins main loom. Make sure no other plugs or wires come out from it and bear it back and cut them off one by one. two of the wires are connected together and controls the light.

Re: someph-ing different...........

Very nice project :D

I used to hate the mk1 172's a few years back but I think I prefer them now to the Mk2's, nice and small and look mean, just needs a bonnet bulge now :D

Re: someph-ing different...........

i shall fabricate a phase 1 bonnet with a williams bulge mate....

i have fallen in love with this as much as my valver now........ i deffo think they are better looking and more menacing than the phase 2's

Re: someph-ing different...........

loving the progress, will you be at FCS? can have a natter etc.

i prefere the PH1's to the PH2's now as well, although emma thinks it looks like a hippo from the front.......

Re: someph-ing different...........

Going back to the airbag light thing, you could just cut the one wire to stop the light. You will have to strip the loom back to find it. then its easily reversable if thats what you are worried about. Big Girl!

there is a pin somewhere in this that if you remove it it breaks the connection therefore distinguishing the light.

Re: someph-ing different...........

more progress then

decided this afternoon i would try and remove the seatbelts all round....

got the fronts out quite easy...then noticed that to get the rears out you have to take the plastic panel off, and to do that you have to take the rear quarter off......so i did...lol

both sides

all done, all out, and the mass of stuff

100_3855.jpg


so the main question, should this all stay out? or should i just put the trim back in?

Biggest problem with no interior is talking, anything over 50mph and you have to shout to have a conversation with your passenger.


Tiresome on the road
 
Re: someph-ing different...........

In as its not going to be a propper track car, all the time if you see what i mean.

Re: someph-ing different...........

i think the plastics may go back in then.... what we reckon about the sound deadening and the speakers behind it then?

Re: someph-ing different...........

Re: someph-ing different...........

cheers andy

interior panels back in now, so onto the airbag light......

this is a barsteward

first got the panel / trim off, a call to jamessrich confirmed the bit i was looking for, i had to snip the carpet going over the centre to access what i needed but this is not an issue as you won't see it, got the foam out of the way also.......its real tight in there...

the pins in there are super stiff, it was really resisting me...not much room against the others too.

not pulled any out yet because of this and will try again tomorrow, just want to confirm i am pulling the right one

the plan
