1978/79 GTS

[GTSPhil]

Earlier in the week decided to get the RH tail light replaced.


The old one with the broken outer edge.


   


Seeing as my main loom does not have the plugs to connect the tail light but rather female connectors, I had to remove the male connectors from the damaged tail lamp and build them to a good tail lamp.


   



All the wires removed.

   


After fitting the wires.


   



Wiring connected and insulated as the white plastic block has lost some of the sides due to age.



   



And the final product.

After taking the car to have the wheel alignment done, decided the dash had to improve so that I had a space to put my phone and wallet again while driving the car.


   


Felt, dash card and vent fitted back.   


   


Got these little gems in and decided to fit them, which meant I had to remove the door handles.


   


Rear one fitted to the handle.


   


While the RH door was stripped, I wanted to change the window winder mech as the window would wind down slightly when closed, thus the mech was damaged.  It also posted a security threat as the window could be forced open very easily.  It was quite a challenge finding a good usable one.
Old one on the left vs recon one on the right.
