danebrewer Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I got a bulkhead a while ago, I think from Simmonites, and they told me, that it was a TD5 one. Trouble is, it isn't like any TD5 bulkhead Ive seen anywhere, even the internet doesn't turn anything up.... the Part number is, according to the label; AHA710460. It looks like a mix of a TDCi bulkhead and the TD5 one, I'm rather at a loss... Below are some pictures of it to help sort things. The white circles are outlining holes I need to fill, I get that the ones in the passenger footwell are there for AC pipes etc, but what about all the holes in the drivers footwell? they don't seem to serve any purpose, there aren't any cables or anything supposed to be running there? The hole for the heater blower motor is huge, I've had to make a plate to fix over it(hence the line of holes around it's periphery). and the two holes above where the fuse panel goes is a bit of a mystery, I assume that one, presumably the right hand one, is there for letting a bundle of wires through owing to its rolled edge, but the other? it seems that there are far too many holes in it for a TD% bulkhead... anyone got any ideas?

daveturnbull Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Can't help individually on the zillions of holes (apart from ones in the pillars, they are for courtesy light switches) bit overall that looks very much TD5 era to me, but with the wiper motor bracket cut off.

Disco-Ron Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Drivers footwell...... Working from the left, Bonnet release cable. The group of four are for the steering column lower mount, The two below those are the bracket that goes down to the chassis.... And the two on the right are I believe for the throttle pedal....

danebrewer Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 aye, I cut the wiper bracket off and ground the spot welds out on the fly screens on the vents so i could install the old ones from my 90..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
