So I finally maned up and did my passenger side door loom yesterday. I decided to use a 2nd hand 1 I had as it had all the same pins and was in mint condition. Also seemed a shame to use the new 1 when I got a good 2nd hand 1 to use.
So I took the glove box out and pulled the carpet back a bit so I could pull the loom through into the car which made it so much easier as I don't like to struggle!

I replaced the loom as the central locking wasn't working and I could see a wire broke off right at the plug so wasn't repairable. The wires were all pretty bad on the old loom

I wanted to do a good job on it so I took my time. It's not the easiest of jobs as I had to check I was soldering the right wires together so I had a multimeter and pen and paper and did 1 wire at a time. Prob took me about 3-4 hours to do it but I was the first 1 I had done and hopefully the last!
The end result

Really please with the end result and it's all working as it should now so happy days!!
My driver side loom isn't in great condition but is working so will prob leave it but might take a look just to check all the wires.
So I think it's now time to get on with the engine side of things!!
