Posted May 28, 200420 yr comment_83078 Have removed the rear LHS quarter panel to remove the dead PO installed power aerial. Looked down inside the panel to see two filler worms poking into the inside. The position looks like where the side marker would have been. As this car is an Aussie Series 1, I thought that they didn't have side markers? The RHS side has no provision for them but the LHS has two spare conductors hanging out of the wiring loom What the????? I guess that the LHS rear end could have been replaced with a later model panel due to crash damage, but that doesn't explain the conductors??? Any clues. This car has a build date of 12/70.

May 28, 200420 yr comment_83121 What color are the wires? I have two black/white, I think they are for a speaker. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11953-rear-wiring-loom-on-71/#findComment-83121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 28, 200420 yr comment_83133 I don't recall the speaker wires in the loom. Nor do I recall a speaker on the left rear quarter for an early car like that. The two rear marker light wires should be black and green/white. However this is from the USA series manual. I would not be surprised to see the wires in the loom even though the marker light was not installed.

May 28, 200420 yr comment_83149 On my 1973, I have blue/red and blue/white for the power antennae, green/white and black for the side marker lamp, and white/black and white for a speaker.

May 30, 200420 yr Author comment_83307 It has solid white and white/black stripe on one branch and the other is blue/red stripe and blue/white stripe.Can anyone confirm what a series 1 RHD Zed should have. Alan??? Oh wise Zed guru and general nice helpful guy (grovel grovel grovel)The rear quarter panel has holes in it for the speaker. A speaker was installed but was connected to cabling separate to the wiring loom (crappy 0.5mm2 twin...nothing good about that). I'll be running new twins at some stage during the resto....:tapemouth Thanks and remember............Zed NOT ZeeROF Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11953-rear-wiring-loom-on-71/#findComment-83307 Share on other sites More sharing options...
