Some minor things done to the Cat.

Installed the Ignitor, istalled it by the book behind instrument cluster before the rpm gauge.
Swapped the spark wirings and spark plugs. Also the Rallye Clock got a new lens.
Fixed my non functioning instrument cluster light, thought it was the switch, but it was bad connection at the fuse.
The fuse didnt move i had to break it and replace it, also cleaned all the bulb connections.
Installed a new speedo wire, the old one was melted to the exhaust.

Electric headlight door conversion, Mercury Cougar XR7 -70



A pretty easy conversion that costs about $90 to do, not more.
I bought a used Mazda Miata headlight door actuator from a scrapyard for about $70.
A adjustable rod i stainless steel for about $11.
A relay for $5. Wiring, bolts, fuse and a small piece of sheet metal i had in my garage.
