My copy of original ecu bracket. The white cover that is NLA in RHD, was available in LHD and I mistakenly purchased one, but was able to modify it to work perfectly in the bracket below.

Yeah that's tidy!!
Just got out of the garage, wiring complete phew. Just before I came out of the garage, I made a list of things to do, not a lot, but have to get creative for power steering hoses and air intake hoses. Fill up with coolant. Then bleed the brakes again, set the tracking and it's ready to go! |

You may already be aware but just in case your not, you can't use hydraulic hose as a power steering hose. Power steering fluid turns acidic at high temp and will eat through the the wall of a hydraulic hose. This is what's happening all the Vauxhall fires. |

No probs, my mate went into a hose crowd here and gave them the lengths and ends, I'm not sure if he told them what it was for but I seen he had them fitted to his truck.

Looks like the poor man's tracking gauge to me.
