I'd be wary of doing any chopping, as it may play havoc with your ecu.

What about the windscreen wiper part of the loom as well, doesn't that stay mk2? Have read various threads on the looms before, but never done it myself.I converted my 1.3 to run kjet so aren't using mk3 loom on my abf. Surely with labelled up looms side by side you can see what stays and what goes easily enough though?

The windsreen wiper cables will have to be extended. I've cut all the lighting out and I've put the engine in tempory just to make sure I have all that I need gunna start the engine make sure it runs and that then tidy the loom up and put it in for gd
