Im helping a mate get his 89 up and running for fun on the track. This is my first go at working on any car so i getting to know how complicated they are!

Pics coming soon the files are to large!

Done so far

Sound deadening
Exterior trims
Dash
A/C system
Rear lights/Boot panel

To do
Gauges
New rear lights

Any help with how to rewire the cluster in now the dash harness has gone would be helpfull.
i have been searching for hours through the TEWD and TSRM.

This is the first few pictures. I will get some cleaner pics soon

Stripped out as much as possible. Rewired the signals into the gauge cluster after spending hours trying to figure that one out! This UK import has no matching wiring diagam anywhere. Ending up tracing the cluster flexible circuit and the engine wiring.
Brigded the turn signal flasher to get around the lack of a hazard switch, a little tidy up then sort out a fog light in a couple of weeks.

Most of the electrical side of things are sorted for the moment. Next its the body work issues, patching up the holes smoothing off the boot panel (trunk). Then road test see how it goes, yes yes.
