Yes, it's part of the factory fit security system, if not replaced you will need to inform your insurance company.

MGF wheels don't fit many other cars but the kid in the rover 200 doesn't know this and the chav after your expensive tyres doesn't car as he will be fitting them to the wheels from his Astra.

I use McGard lockers, O/E on later cars.

Hi and welcome to the forum

You have been busy and well done on the pass.

This is the right forum to talk about EV conversions, there are several on here.

But I might be wrong about injectors - https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-GRID018860

https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-GRID018825 lists all the different cam shafts used.

I think all MEMS 3 cars use the same blue injectors.

Yes, those are the rear catches for the hardtop.

.........So why is there a 20bhp difference between the 1.6 115 and the 1.8 135 ? I've read the cam profiles are the same as the 135........

I believe the cams are different between the 1.8 135 and the 1.6 115. I think the 115 has the same cams as the 1.8 120.

I originally fitted MGZS tweeters that are fitted into the panels that cover the corner of the window where the door mirrors fit.

As I had a mk1 MGF there was no extra wiring but I found that the tweeters connected to the main door speakers using secondary terminals on the main speakers. Luckily I had already replaced the manual mirrors with electric ones, but again I had to add the wiring, this time all of it.

Hi and welcome to the forum

Been there, done that, both ways.

It is possible but it means disconnecting much of the suspension so it's less involved to take out the drive shaft.
