Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Maintenance & Servicing Fit male waterproof connector

Very Good!!


Clever Dealer. Free Spares .
The thread is about fitting an extra High Level Lamp which fits on top of a suitcase and can be easily unplugged when the case is off the car.

For touring Europe, 'Apparently' If you already have a fixed lamp (Like the Cobra or Alien) then it is illegal in France and maybe elsewhere to cover it up (some do take the alien off)

I hope that helps??

Frank I can't quite believe it but I managed to get there in the end. Link to photo below.

I could not have done this without your invaluable help and Paul from MES Ltd who supplied the Y-Splitter.

I did not check what type of connectors I had & as my car is from 1998 it turned out to be bullet as opossed to the later econo seal type. This meant that to solve the problem I had to change the connectors working inside the tyre well. Space was tight but determination prevailed.

When the temporary brake light is not in use it is easily removed.The female connecter is held in place by velcro as Frank suggested. I then made a loop using a cable tie & used another cable tie to secure it to the velcro. Now it is very easy to pull out with a hook. This saves the need to remove the spare wheel everytime you want to connect the temporary break light.

The Y-Splitter made this all possible. I did not think that I would be able to tackle this job myself but Frank spurred me on. Now I am one happy Morganeer!

Ahh - I see. Nice picture and a great illustration. I should have realised there was foreign influence afoot.

Hi Julia, I appreciate that this is Talk Morgan and not Match.com but having read your profile interests of Morgans, Beer Making & Motorbikes you would appear to be most blokes dream Gal. You don't happen to support Manchester City as well by any chance ? Steve ( only joshing )
