I use Photobucket to upload pictures, dead easy but obviously means you need an account with them, sorry can't help other than that

Rob P wrote:one thing that does still confuse me is that even when opening currently with the key the Boot lid needs physically lifting, should it not be spring loaded? this would be required to ensure it lifts immediately the switch release is operated or is there a need to fit some spring mechanism as well, or is my car short of some standard spring loading of the existing Boot hinges?
Brit-Car-Nut wrote:Rob: you should have a pair of torsion springs running between the boot hinges. They should be strong enough to relieve the weight of the bootlid but if it has been repaired or anything added to it like an underside carpet or trim, then it will be too heavy. The bootlid also might be binding along the opening - gently lift the lid from closed and see if you feel any rubbing. Realign it if you feel it is touching. IS the rubber seal sticky and holding the lid down?
That exhausts my suggestions.

If you don't have air conditioning, then fitting a switch in the a/c switch position allows you to pick up a convenient switched IGN supply (and ground) from the Blower Fan Slow Relay (position N inder the binnacle) pins 1 and 2.

I guess, you cut the wire and then reclamp it? Where did you get the clamp for the wire from, please?
