I ordered a load of parts from TPS,
ball studs for the engine cover, under bonnet insulation pad, wipers,

They list a textured bulkhead with glass, not seen that before, my van doesn’t have a bulkhead so I’m intrigued

Today I had another walk round it and tried to see what else I needed to order for it.

Swapped the rear wiper blade over, re-wired my auxiliary wiring from the battery post to the engine bay fuse box instead which is a bit cleaner

Isn't that the Motexion bulkhead?

I really don’t know, I’ve heard lots about motexion but never seen one,

My roof shelf is going to be in and out like a 1980’s chart topper so all roof and visor screws are out and replaced with rivnuts

Powerfold mirrors just need to get them coded in so the folding works and don’t have to press up for down

And ...

Finished the adapter cable now the second plug turned up.

Tested with both motors connected and all seems good so far !

Clamp meter shows only 22.4mv on 10mv/A range (if I am reading things correctly !?

No load as the wiper arms are slowly travelling around Europe
DE to Latvia, then UPS back to DE, and hopefully arriving here tomorrow.

Wiper arms arrived

Fitted the Bosch blades.
Raining today so final fit tomorrow ...
Gives the Sikaflex a chance to cure a bit more

Finished

Removed half of the Powerflex gearbox mount insert. I intended to remove all of it, but it tore and I was quickly losing interest

. Anyway, even with only half of it removed, the van no longer vibrates like a jackhammer, so I'm calling it a win.

PSA: If you value your sanity and/or fillings, do NOT fit one of those inserts.
