More electrical and the Wink Mirror Saga

Sunday Rye worked on the rabbit, below is the Wink Mirror being installed. The mirror spans all the way across the car and you get a complete picture of everything behind you. No blind spots at ALL! Took Rye about 45 minutes to get to this stage, figured out how to mount it and left side bracket is screwed into the roll bar.Ooops, the last turn of the last mounting bolt and the head of the sheet metal screw pops off. No problem, drill it out, the sheet metal screw is soft. Well, Murphy is lurking big time! You got it, a drill bit breaks off just when the screw was almost out. OK, now how to get the drill bit out. Well, look at the pic, all you need is a comfy position on your back and all your tools on the nifty chest shelf!
Well, Rye was working on this little twist from Murphy for almost two hours. Finally I suggested, abandon the hole and lets just use a nice strong, wide hose clamp to finish it off. Rye said, "If I knew that solution I would have stopped two hours ago." Well, I didn't want him to miss out of all the fun there on his back. Mirror is in and looks great, and you can see everything.

While Rye was battling Murphy I was doing more wiring. Below you can see the big power cable from the master cut-off switch next to the windshield running down to the starter. Along with that big red cables are wires to the radiator fan, re-located coil and the alternator.
Rye did install two things without Murphy interrupting. Above you can see the black stress bar installed between the two strut towers. This keeps the top of the suspension from moving in or out under load.

Then below is a picture under the car, look at that nice clean transmission! Sure hope it works, since we never have had it under load or power. That brown bar under the transmission is another stress bar that ties the bottom of the front suspension together so it won't flex or move under load. These top and bottom stress bars were two very nice Neuspeed aftermaket parts that came with the Magic Rabbit. Very lucky to have these additions.
OK, packages were waiting at my door. I have now moved closer to a real racer. I now own racing shoes and gloves, along with my helmet. Almost there, the suit is supposed to arrive on Wednesday. Pics of the my total outfit will be posted then.

Thats all for today, now down to the garage and the Magic Rabbit!
