Is this vertical enough??
I need to make this SVA Friendly any ideas??
Front braided hoses need covering and suspect that top ball joint nut needs a cover.. Battery cut off could be a problem??

Steering Column and Master Cylinder
Tunnel
Under Dash view
I did my SVA last week, and I did cover up the lock nut of the top ball joint (sharp edges).
Cant help you, but damn that looks the dogs danglies!!!

Very nice car. Beware re headlamp bar ends, and is that brake pipe from the master cylinder supported enough?Also are the front indicators out far
enough. Hope you fly through! Good luck.

as said, ball joint locknuts,
possibly unsecured length of copper brake pipe to master cylinder.
re the cutoff switch, seen a pic somewhere on hear of the key "encased" in a clear resin, kind of like a big marble

Fog light, Is it off vertical or is it the picture?
You may need to cover top and bottom of the shocks.
Looks really nice though.

I found a large gator chopped up covered the shock adjustment area, and covered the rest as this.

Fog light looks off vertical as previously mentioned.
Easy fix is to put some small 4mm black vacuum tubing between the top of the foglight and the surround to pad the top out.
It worked fine for me at SVA and southampton have a rep for being fussy.

Piece of J rubber trim around frame should pass that.If you insulation tape mirror body first then when you take it off the mirror will be undamaged by adhesive
Are you inside my head chocky
indicators 400mm from widest point of car

Looks very good indeed.
AS already said. The shock spring seats need covering. IIRC some people use tyres from radio control cars.
Looks very smart.
The bottom of the dash may be a problem, I think a bigger radius is needed.
I would'nt worry about the cut off switch, but he bottom of the ally corner may need a bit of padding to show some effort.
Good luck
Colin
looks nice Mike
