daves16v 1 Posted November 7, 2011 Looking for the cable ties that are used to tie back harnesses in the engine bay, these are the type that push onto studs. They're not available from the dealer, I've managed to find the original items on the net but I have to buy a billion of em. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted November 7, 2011 good shout mate... will need some of these myself :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted November 7, 2011 Pete, I didn't know until I'd cut through them all but there is a tiny release lever on them so you can re-use them. I spoke to the parts guy at TPS today and he's pointed me in the Vauxhall direction so I've got some on order from them, probably be completely wrong when I see them.

Pete Yep will let you know about the cable ties. The OBD2 conversion is going well, more work than the guides let on though but I am doing it on my own and being very careful with wiring which is really what the conversion is all about. My Golf loom appears to have a 12 point (if I remember correctly) connector attached which isn't mentioned in the CF guide or the guide on the Canada club website so I've had to trace wiring and make up/transfer wiring. There are 1 or 2 other things not mentioned in the guides. I'm learning new stuff though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
