I did some research today and that's the case in those Minors which were imported in Finland. Trafficators did not pass the registration inspection and MOT. There were some cases were the trafficator did froze and stuck during the winter. And those can not be retrofitted or the car will not pass the MOT.Fingolfin wrote:MMs did come with trafficators, yes, but as I recall some export models were modified to have flashing indicators, per local statutes.
The base looks like this:[frame]If you want the trafficators, they're not hard to wire in, but they can be difficult to find. About the cover -- do you mean a plastic or glass cover, over the bulb, or the rubber boot that fits over the unit from behind?
The carpet is actually a basic interior carpet from a local hardware store. I think it's intented to be used in stairs etc, so it's easy to bend around corners and it's easy to cut. We used a thicker contact glue in the base and more liquid in the carpet, so that it was easier to put in place. The seams were easy to smooth with hammer or rubber mallet. My father-in-law used to be a builder, so he is quite handy with these things..ian.mcdougall wrote:Where did you get the carpet from it looks like a moulded one piece

Because it's not Minor, I will give you only the car number plate. Who will recognize it first?Five-point hint, it's a Morris..

it's actually my wife's car, that needs some restoring. Not much, brakes, suspension and perhaps some engine maintenance..
