Hi, I'm after a negative lead that goes from the battery to the gearbox, the clamp part is splitting on mine. Thanks andy ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

I did it at the same time as relocating the battery inside the car, but no reason you couldn't just bolt it to the side of the existing clamp I'd imagine. EDIT: actually no, I piggy-backed it to the chassis clamp:  ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

There's 2 there, one goes to the battery, where do you have the other one going to? Or is there 2 there and I've forgot, I can't see it, I will be working blind when I undo it. The clamp On my wire that goes round the battery terminal has split, it's lead. ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

There are two normally - one from the gearbox to the battery and one from the block to the battery - rather than that I just piggybacked it, so the neg wire going off to the bottom left was going back to the battery. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

Mine's a phase 1, dunno if that's any different. Really doesn't matter as long as it's all earthed. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

Ah, that was it actually - I got them from Halfords last minute rather than during my CBS order. Dan gets points, I'm reassured I'm not retarded. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

I wonder how much for one with the lead battery clamp on just like the standard one, would Peugeot rip my pants down for it?________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

Probably easier to just get the parts from CBS and make your own in half a second.________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

Battery negative on mine goes to the gearbox, then there is 4 earths going to the chassis infront of the battet box, in 2 places next to each other, but they come from the loom, and 1 of them is for the new fan wiring. ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |
