Hi has anyone replaced the rear loom in there mini, the wiring goes through the a pillar. my plan was to attach some scrap wire and pull it through and then use the scrap to pull through the new loom. I can't get it to pull though, does anyone have any tips? cheers 1988 mini mayfair |

It's a pain.... I usually tape up the end of the loom so there are no loose ends. Try and keep as thin as possible. A straightened out coat hanger is used as the pull through.... .... But even then a bit jiggling is often required..... If anyone has a magic trick...I'm all ears..... |

I just did the one in my Traveller, I pulled a piece of strong builder's string through when I took the old loom out then used it to pull the replacement one back again. The new loom was much more flexible than the 53 year old one I took out, so it went back in very easily. Tim |
