    Kudos to Elin, He makes it look easy, but I’ve been in the middle of that frustrating spaghetti.!

    Wow that's a lot of work and I'm glad you got it all covered because I don't think I would have made all that understandable to anyone !

    Great job as always Elin!👍 Something I do when running multiple wires is to make a copy of the wiring diagram, and check off each wire on it, as I run/terminate that wire. That way it’s easier to spot a wire I either forgot to run or forgot to connect (as I always do 😵‍💫).

    Great job Elin.. Some of it was a bit of a head scratcher but It'll make that lovely 1960 TR3A much safer and more reliable with the extra fuses and relays.

    I can’t even imagine another shop that would even take on this job and how much it would even cost that is a nightmare.

    Just as well you split the videos into separate bits as my wife would wonder where I was 😄😄

    I would have used the old Overdrive switch for the Hazard lights !

    Interesting videos. My one observation is that the headlamps , although relayed still aren't fused, though the sidelamps are under the new scheme. If the owner wants the h/lamps fused you'll have to fit 4 fuses, one for each filament. If only a dip and main fuses are introduced, if the fuse blows, both lamps go out! Not a good idea.

      That is the explanation in the manual too - you don't want your lights to go off while driving on a dark curvy road in the mountains....

    Elin, you have a future (OK, maybe a short future) in bomb disposal.

    What a headache ! .....If you run your finger(s) on the backside of the dash, just to the left of the glovebox, you 'should find a hole on the metal (under the dash cover) for a switch/cable....The same is true around the heater rheostat switch , there you'll find a hole(s) through the metal for auxiliary switches , so there's no need to jury rig switches out of sight/touch under the dash.....If you have a TR3 dash panel among your parts , you can double check for 'factory' holes for either switches or cables ......Just makes for a cleaner installation.....John (west coast, Can.)

    Is the Powerblock full? or is there room for future retrofits? For instance Toyota Prius Electric Power steering or, Electric Air Conditioner?

      Have you driven a TR3? What would be the point? I drive these cars because they don't have that overcomplicated crap! Maybe you can add an automatic trans axle and convert it to front wheel drive too.

    Wiring is always a challenge. That is such a lovely car, it deserves not to go up in flames. Glad to see you're taking care of that. I can't always follow the reasoning, but that is just a product of my age. 🥸

    Electrical is a dark art to me…thanks for making it at least a little clearer. Maybe the owner should provide some LEDS and a third brake light to improve safety while being followed…
