Well, you kind of just route it up and behind the dash, sort of, kind of thing. The hard part (which is why my heater flap control is wedged behind the dash) is getting the control back through the

Sorry Max, whilst I value your opinion, removing the whole box is not such a hardship. I expect the answer is "it depends". On mine, I couldn't get the front cover off due to one of the flanges that

Hmm, well, I suspect my experience is unique, since the elbows and flex tubes are original, but the tubes from the box to the elbows had been replaced with plastic drain tube (this I know from the O

Thanks Lawrie, thanks Rod, here's my tale, that others may learn from my misfortune (except that it is not really a woeful story, and no-one dies at the end). So, as Lawrie correctly diagnosed, one o

That's no mystery, it is indeed the instrument lights on/off switch. It is possible that some DPO has removed the switch from the circuit and wired the instrument lights on permanently. A second, al

it's quite possible that it is not worthwhile to repair the wheel. I expect many others on the MG list will tell you how to do it, but you should compare the cost of repair against the cost of a new
