Servo and control box

Post by colonel mustard »

I have a slight dilemma!
I have got a 998 mk1 Cooper, for which I have purchased and received a cooper wiring loom. The issue I have is I have a servo!
Options
As it left the factory as a standard 998 and had a servo fitted later in life, do I install the control box in the standard Cooper location
Or
Install the control box in the Cooper s location by extending the control box wiring, correct for a Cooper S but it’s a Cooper.

Any advise welcome (before is go mad!!!)
Thanks

How about ditching the generator and installing an alternator.

I put the regulator in the S position and made up a small extension harness from the loom to the regulator. Doesn’t really notice once all the wires are tucked away.
