My wires going to the reverse light switch on the gearbox are too close to the exhaust pipe. I understand there should be a P-clip on one of the bolts of the gearbox. Anybody know which bolt?
And there should be a clip on the cruciform X part of the chassis frame. Anybody know where? I’ve been under there and I don’t see a hole for that clip where I think it ought to be on the right hand side.
Hi Rob,
I have a feeling when I was reinstalling those completely missing wires on my MKV I found at least one clip on the frame. I’ll report back once I have a chance to check this and take a photo or two.
Cheers!
Thanks Roger, that bolt hole is normally for a gearbox cover bolt, but it gives me an idea. There is a 1/4" hole in the cruciform X in which there is a clip on the under side holding the parking brake cable. I begin to suspect the wiring clip was also at that place on the top side of the chassis.
Now the trick will be to see if I can get one on there with the body in place. The factory guys probably put it on before the body was on.
I may have solved the question of the other clip on the gearbox.
Upper most 5/16" bolt on the right side holding the tail case to the main case.
