And when you drive it and hear a Miaaaeow from behind the dash you'll know where you left the cat !

Great job there ...

Hahaha!

(I'm a LOLaphobic!)

Thanks.

I'm not sure if a How-To would be worth the effort for the relatively few who might wish to attempt the Mk2 ATC conversion project, and this thread isn't quite the right place for it. But if anyone has any questions about, er, "how to" (!), then they're welcome to give me a yell. I'm happy to create a Q&A thread if the demand is there especially while it's still fairly fresh in my mind. I just don't want to scatterbomb the forum with redundant threads for the mods to have to tidy up (or waste any of my time either).

Nice one - I'm trying to do a ATC convesion with a twist as mines a mk1 so a Q&A /how to thread would be great - first question is -

Tell me about the wiring.

I bet yours is in better nick, but thanks anyway.
A bit more progress today - just found a KV6 engined 75 with cruise in it at my local scrappy, so I'll be having that off it! TC, prepare for a few daft questions!

Frustratingly the dash loom is different.

You'll need the
2 cruise ECU's from the passanger footwell
pump from driver side bulk head
actuator from throttle body
a master switch
and steering wheel switches
all the plugs
some wire
lots of patiance
extra pins for main ecu, abs ecu and rotery coupler wiring
