Rob - premier wiring looms

cheap and do some awesome looms

we just got the loom for the s2k dax, weighs bugger all and was £130

he could make you a nice one up as you have pretty much the same as what the dax will have

still not as light as my old red one robin...

you still have the rear axle, fuel tank, entire suspension, steering column, rest of wiring, etc, to remove...

mind, no-one can beat adam-d's corsa i guess...
