6.1. UNWRAPPING THE HARNESS

Once you have unpacked the wiring harness, it would be a good idea to first check out all the connections and connectors.  Doing so will make it much easier for you to make all the required connections while lying on your back inside the car.
It is recommended to tag each connection with an appropriately named label.
The complete harness consists of the main wiring loom plus five separate smaller looms: two for the head lights, two for the front indicator lights and a wiring loom for the engine, which you may put together, depending on the options you have installed (oil temperature transmitter, 123 electronic ignition etc.)

Attaching the harness to the body is best achieved by gluing it to the inside of the body, using the SikaFlex bond.
For a proper bonding, sand the fibreglass and make sure to de-grease the fibreglass and the harness.

Make sure that all the connections are installed so you know exactly which way the harness should go. This works out best by working from the back towards the front. You may also install the fuse box. The fuse box is best mounted in the interior, and on the lefthandside of the car. Place it against the upper vertical part of the firewall, directly behind the dashboard. Then put the wiring loom through the firewall using the hole drilled next to the oval hole for the Master brake cylinder.

Prepare all the areas where you want to attach the harness to the body. Do so with 10 cm intervals using SikaFlex bond.

Attach the harness securely to the body by using appropriate clamps and leave it for 24 hours to harden. Make sure to protect the body against scratches from the clamps by placing cardboard between clamps and body (see picture).
