Never mind about the reverse lights, got them working :)

[craiggroves91]

Hey guys I can't seem to find any info on how to get working reverse lights.
Do I just use a e30 reverse switch and screw it into the ZF trans and use the e30 wires that go through the shift boot?

Took the carpet out to clean up the brake fluid and by default I started chipping away at the tar haha

[craiggroves91]

So on top of there being brake fluid all over the carpet inside the car, I came out to find brake fluid leaking all over the driveway too. I guess the brake fluid reservoir to MC seals are bad. Ordering that and the connector for the clutch feed line and then I should be able to drive her!

[craiggroves91]

Something crappy happened today.

The connector for the clutch master feed broke without me realizing, so when I was putting brake fluid in the reservoir by the time I realized the fluid was going in the car, there was already a big puddle. Not the biggest deal.

The carpet was really crappy anyway, will probably just take it out.

Now I have to wait for a new stupid connector

Ahhhh okay I see now. I was all messed up! Thanks tho, its very clear now.
The diagnostic plug wires need to be extended to reach in the original spot IIRC

Yeah, its honestly a little crowded over there anyway with the C101 and the MAF plug coming through.

Craig, those covers I sold you look awesome dude!

Sure do :)

Order parts through Danny everyone! Great prices!!
