Re: Dual/Split Personality Register
None of the cars with duotone interior had the glovebox lids fitted originally. They can be added later of course - all the required holes are punched into the bodywork already! Many of our old cars are not as original as we like to think are they. This is a picture of my DP 1964 traveller with duo...

Re: Flasher Unit Connections
Most of the retrofit are integrated with a flasher unit and switch off the standard indicator circuit when in use. Look behind your hazard switch and see if it has a unit as per the example picture. If so it's unlikely your 4 pin is operating the hazards.it is always difficult to know what previous ...

It's te same as mine (split personality model), see https://board.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=694360&hilit=Split+model#p694360 My seat base has a one piece rubber diaphragm rather than separate straps but a couple of the hooks had come adrift and it makes the base sag. It's only 4 bolts at the f...

Re: Minor Seats
When I bought mine I had the opposite the seat felt to high and too close to the wheel. I decided to move the seat back to the optional holes and when doing so found a block of wood under the carpet across the floor, the previous owner had put under the rear of the seat legs. It feels much better no...

So does that also mean at the front the junction with stoplight switch it is BSF in from master cylinder and UNF out to left and right front brake? No it is BSF both ends as far as I am aware. I replaced all of my braking system but I confess that I bought a Kunifer brake pipe set from Automec rath...

Re: its a bit of a shock.
It's all a state of mind, most of the single roads in my area are now 50 or even 40 limits and the villages 20. A 1098 moggy will easily maintain these speeds. Never go on motorways and 55 on occasional short dual carriageway hop. Just pottering and enjoying the drive is what the car is for
