Sounds like a great job you're doing! One question - when you rewired the loom, did you use new terminals for the ends of the wire inside the plugs, or did you re-use old ones? If you used new ones, where did you get them from, and do you have any part numbers for them?

I used the old terminal ends.

 

What i did was get the terminal out of its plastic housing and cut the old wire off tight to the point its crimped into the terminal using a sharp blade. I then roughed up the point on the metal where the wire is crimped and melted solder onto it. On the new wire i then put on the rubber grommet, stripped then end if the wire, twisted the copper cores melted solder onto the bare wirest and soldered it carefully onto the crimp.
