M50 Conversion Loom

Post Wed Apr 06, 2011 1:06 pm

just a quick question, when doing the M50 conversion how do all the looms etc work? obviously use the M50 loom but how does that connect into the rest of the car and the ecu etc?

sorry for the newbie questions.

Chop/solder/chop/solder etc etc etc and you might end up with something that looks like this

Or if you ask me nicely I can do it for you

Yep that's Dan loom

Plug & play, no messing about trying to follow circuit diagrams and making a mess of soldering. I've used 2 now and each time the car has fired into life straight away.
