The arches are bonded on as the wings and rear quarter have been rolled. It's only a track car so I don't want it too mint or I won't drive it hard enough

Ok, so I tried to start it and it wouldn't. It appears the BSI unit is f****d. Probably due to me cutting so many wires out the loom and alarm. Didn't have any of the functions that the BSI does like wipers, indicators etc.
So I ripped everything out. Every last wire on the car was cut out and I'm starting from scratch with a custom loom I'm going to make.
First off, seeing as I had it in on my shelf at home was fit the OMEX 600. I bought it from Northampton Motorsport at PPC in the Park this summer. I wasn't going to fit it until I started tuning the engine, but what the hell. So called up NM and booked it in next Wednesday to go on the rolling road.
So the past few days I've made the engine loom up. I had the semi assembled loom off OMEX so it was all laid out in the bay, labelled and cut to length. Then the original connectors were soldered onto the loom protected with Raychem DR25 heat shrink and over wrapped with military spec kevlar protection.
I got a wiring diagram for a rally car and bought all new equipment to make the loom. a nice modular fuse/relay box for inside, waterproof main relay box for under the bonnet and loads of high quality toggle switches.
And seeing as the old clocks are as good as useless now I referred to my kit car magazine from last month where they reviewed dash clocks and this unit come out very high. So ordered one of these which should be here tomorrow.
Cheeky video of it here

Really impressive mate but you have now got me worried as i have cut a lot of wires out of the car aswell. I was going to use the standard stuff to do the lights etc so cut everything else away  You dont still have the wiring diagram for the rally car do you? Would you be able to email me a copy?
I looked into the handbrake thing. The blue book doesnt state that you need one however the road traffic act requires you to have a mechanical system and so scrutineers will fail you for not complying to the RTA

No, they are really well priced. I had an ETB digi dash lite in my kit car that was £450 but this has the same features minus the GPS and was only £250.
Rally car wiring diagrams are on polevaults website here www.polevolt.co.uk/aca..._Info.html
and you can order all the parts from them. I got it all for £230, minus the wire which I've got in stock.

Got this done last night. Looks a mess, but once all the wires are present I can then loom them together and wrap them.
The stalk controls for the lights are into the fuse box so they will need connecting up to the front and rear looms.
The wiper stalk is ready to be connected but I need to order more terminals for the fuse box. Stupid me ordered 20 seeing as it's a 20 fuse holder. but each one has two 
My wiring diagrams 
Centre console switches
It looks a right mess, but I have all the wire i need right to hand

Looking good. You dont happen to have a note of the parts that you have ordered to build the loom? I think that even though i havent checked my system is working, if i can get rid of the standard bulky bsi and fuesbox then its worthwhile doing this? You can let me know how long it actually take 
Have you just adapted the basic guides on that site you sent me to the 206 or was there a specific diagram?
Did you manage to get the original terminals apart without breaking them or did you have to buy new ones?

Yeah, I've got the list of all the bits you need to build the loom. The biggest problem I'm facing is the hazard switch. The 206 one doesn't work like the old fashioned style one, it is just a momentary on-off to trigger the bsi. I'm not sure what to do with it yet, still working on that and seeing as I have 6 days till the car has to be running then I'm not too concerned and I'll sort it over the winter.
The only thing i really changed on them diagrams was to ditch the navigator horn switch and change the heated front window to operate the blower on full which I've already butchered and set to blow on the screen. Some terminals come apart ok, some didn't but you have loads left over like the fog like plugs so it's all good. Just buy new pins for them and I've crimped and soldered them. I think it will take me about 4 evenings to do the whole thing from scratch, but I am an aircraft electrician!! so if you can get your head around how to wire it you will be fine.
