A guy at work who owns a V8S has just asked me if I know where the wiring loom comes from for a V8S as he is doing a total overhaul on his car and one of the things he is going to replace apparently is the loom (dont ask cos I dont know why).Anyway does anyone know if its TVR designed or is it nicked from another car.

hmm... didn't sound to healthy for a V8..!

Seriously though, I'm sure I've read that the wiring is TVR... primarily due to it being plastic... twice the wiring... earthing everything etc etc...

Oh, what happened BTW? Someone trip over the plug again?

Hand made for the car. TVR will make another up but it is expensive. I rewired a TVR Vixen many years ago and that was relatively straightforward but a V8S one would be a real swine. Need plenty of cable and connectors!
