Well rear parcel shelf and all seatbelts have been removed so now I await the harness arrival.

Also greased the sticky rear caliper which seems to have helped.

I sprayed another couple of engine bits green too so will get pics up when I fit them on again!

Hoping my livery arrives in the next couple of days as it is all bought and paid for

Ok, so harness arrived today and all was well until I tried to put the final bolt in.

This is the one that goes through the original subframe and into the floor same as Leigh's:


Problem being, the original bolt is tapered and therefore the hole narrows the deeper it goes (also the thread is a fraction wider I think)

So how do I get the bolt in, as brute force seems to be failing!?

Best way would prob be to tap it out to the size needed.

Yeeh if u have a tap set I would go a intermediate tap first then the fine one

[Smokey]

I dont have a tap set Just a drill :P

[coreygraham180]

I don't either or I would have offered u it

[Jay-ZS+]

If it wasnt holding in a seat belt id suggest drilling it out 0.5mm small then just brute force approach

[Jay-ZS+]

could always get one use it, carefully put it back in the case and take it back.

[Smokey]

That was my initial though but as you say, is holding a seatbelt!

Surely enough brute force should eventually get it in?!?
