    Boot lid support.

    Hi All. A fellow P6 owner needs a boot stay, I have one that I am giving him. He has all the brackets fitted but the spare rod I have needs the plastic retainer. Does anyone out there have such a thing that they are willing to part with. Regards.

    Replacement Roof panel.

    Hi all. Hope you all have had a good Christmas. I am looking for a replacement roof panel, my vinyl one is beginning to bubble. I can find plenty of vinyl supplies but the actual panel is becoming elusive. I dont have a garage and use my car daily so hence the need for a swap item. Cheers Dean.

    What altenator??

    Ok taking a previous post on a different direction. Trying to identify my alternator. 1975 2200Sc. There are no markings or legible labels. My Haynes manual claims it is an 11AC. I have looked under bonnet and drivers glove box and can't find any relay or 3AC unit. The wiring loom near the...

    Brake and Ign warning lights.

    Talking of a wiring diagram. Is there such a thing for a 1975 2200SC RHD with pre engaged starter. If so where is it, as it isnt in any of the Haynes manuals i have and the supplement is for TC models. The Haynes manual which i grew up on thinking they were the Bees knees i must admit are...

    Brake and Ign warning lights.

    If i need to replace the altenator is it best to go for the 18ac 3500 version for my 2200. Bearing in mind i live in scotland, do regular short journeys and its heavy to push start.

    Brake and Ign warning lights.

    Ok. Fixed the brake light issue.... handbrake was slightly loose and needed tightening. Result. Checked the lamps and wiring behind the speedo and all looks good and others working fine. Checked with regards to the wiring diagram in Haynes.... leaves alot to be desired does the diagram. Got...

    Central gear stick console.

    Good luck on fitting yours MrTask. You are welcome to this one as I managed to get one. As mentioned in a previous post these things are very fragile and brittle. I have not sourced replacement clips yet so if you find a good replacement then let me know.

    Miscellaneous Switch

    ok here's one for all you geeks out there. My speedo packed up today whilst going out to pick up a steering wheel. Luckily I had a spare from an P6 auto to hand so I got home and started to replace it. for some reason fittting the speedo cable was an absolute ****** today, but whilst my head...

    Central gear stick console.

    I wish you had posted this before my attempts, oh well you live and learn. As for the Ebay item, i asked the breakers if they could show me the rear specifically the securing lugs. They couldnt supply as the item is stored elsewhere, and at 83 quid i am not wanting to buy. It could be as bad...

    Central gear stick console.

    These breakers are asking top dollar for their items, and this console is a bit grubby to say the least.... but there again when you are looking for a particular needle you cant afford to be too choosy. I will wait a bit first though.

    Central gear stick console.

    Not really, tried to hide some screws to hold the gear gaiter, thats when it snapped. It doesnt look TOO bad, and will suffice until i find a good one.
