My copy of original ecu bracket. The white cover that is NLA in RHD, was available in LHD and I mistakenly purchased one, but was able to modify it to work perfectly in the bracket below.

Yeah that's tidy!!
Just got out of the garage, wiring complete Cool phew.

Just before I came out of the garage, I made a list of things to do, not a lot, but have to get creative for power steering hoses and air intake hoses.
Fill up with coolant.
Then bleed the brakes again, set the tracking and it's ready to go!

You may already be aware but just in case your not, you can't use hydraulic hose as a power steering hose. Power steering fluid turns acidic at high temp and will eat through the the wall of a hydraulic hose. This is what's happening all the Vauxhall fires.

No probs, my mate went into a hose crowd here and gave them the lengths and ends, I'm not sure if he told them what it was for but I seen he had them fitted to his truck.
