Torch & Aux Socket Fitted

ZedTeeTee · 19th July 2016, 17:58

I was quite happy to recently win a brand new Rover torch on e-bay, and although it's a bit of a marmite refit, I quite liked having one when I had my 75, and the cubby box on the MG always felt a bit empty without one.

I already had a couple of aux sockets in my new bits box, so I thought I might as well fit everything in one go which was easy as I have the earlier fusebox so the loom fits straight in. I made up a loom for the aux socket and ran it along the torch one and at the same time, made a hole for the ipod for when I eventually solve the issue with the intravee I have.

The adapter is for my dashcam which I'm quite happy to have connected to the socket when I use it. It may eventually get hardwired in but for now it'll do. Not a bad way to spend half an hour.

Is the red switch for your James Bond style ejector seat

It's either that or the hidden machine guns

Or a button to run a nifty device for motorised cup holders! That'd be cool

Got the torch in mine too, although i'd be interested in wiring in an Aux socket and sorting the wires for the Stereo into the same place USB/AUX etc.

I'll look at doing this next few weeks, few things on the cards first! just got her.
