fitted my second rear blind

baconbuttyman · 26th February 2011, 20:06

I was approached by a fellow member (scouse1958) to fit a rear blind, so today i did, got his ZT apart and set about installing the loom (which i was dreading), when Paul said some thing like, shame they never put a loom in ready, which made me take a look and low n behold, there is was, already installed, Phew, made life a lot easier. so the shelf is fitted and all we need to do it connect the switch when he comes for the fitting of his new DD.

The loom was taped up to the wires on top of the shelf.

i might have a look just out of interest, it seems to have the loom for everything else but just without the equipment to use it...

I think mine was about 12-14 quid... Couldn't believe the quality and it being a gen oem one too....

...Not fussed about having to do it manually for that price..
