Excellent Roger the hard work looks well worth it, dont know where you find the time

For the last two weeks I've only been inside to eat and a few hours sleep. And work has revolved around fetching and carrying!

Still got the parcel shelf and glove boxes to finish and the weather strip to tidy up. And the seat belts to fit, the boot floor, the indicators to sort, the stereo to fit and and and

yes i would have had no doubts it would pass.
just like new so cant be any problems.

So how did it pass with no seat belts or indicators ?

Posted: **Fri May 25, 2007 9:49 pm**

Presumably not fitted with them when built

Posted: **Fri May 25, 2007 9:53 pm**

All Minors had indicators (of some sort) !! But I agree about the belts.

Posted: **Fri May 25, 2007 9:54 pm**

Aren't those trafficators?

Posted: **Fri May 25, 2007 10:13 pm**

Thats right trafficators and no seat belts!! I did check before I went!!

Hi Roger, what year is Sophie ? Thingy (63 2 door) has the same small glass side lights on her face but she doesnt have trafficators in her B posts, are you going to fit the big orange plastic indicators to Sophie?

She is a 61, Actually she should have the even smaller sidelights, but I fitted these ones to keep in character. The side lights are in the headlamps and I'm going to use the side lights as indicators - I have fitted orange bulbs. I'm still thinking about the back indicators but I'm keeping the old style rear side and brake lights.
