During this process, changes are seen often, and the motivation once lost was now flourishing.
To continue putting the puzzle back together, the factory wiring loom was laid out on the ground, and each part was identified, thanks in part, to our labelling before its removal.
Things like airbags, seatbelt sensors, and the entertainment unit were clearly not required, so were tagged off and noted.
From this point, there was the 'fiddly' process of putting the loom back into the car.
Routing it smartly was tricky. The roll cage was in spots where the wires had previously gone, and while we would have liked the wires to follow the lines on the outside of our well-built Kaitler Motorsport Engineering cage, it wasn't always possible.
We routed them as best and as neatly as we could, and placed the wires in conduit – an extremely irritating task, but one that’s more than worthwhile.
The engine bay was prepared for the reinstallation of the motor. As an impulsive person, I couldn't wait to put it in right away.
It was a Sunday afternoon and everything was prepared and ready. I was in the zone, and it was getting done that day.
