Now that there is no track event planned until next year, I removed the seats and carpet and started cutting through the wiring loom a bit more Big Grin

Here is what it looked like after removing the aircon control unit and all unneeded accessories:

I then had to remove all the cut wires which made quite a mess under the dashboard :Chair:

There is still a bit of work to do under the dash but it is slightly better now :

Next to come:
- more wiring clean up
- removal of the water tank of the wiper washers
- removal of the aircon unit
- installation of bucket seats and harness when the leather interior is sold
- test fitting of the Schnitzer wheels
- find a way to fit the windows and hazard switches on the gutted dashboard
