Hi Folks,
I have recently acquired a late model S3C. While trying to fix the broken washer bottle mounts, I stumbled across the ECU and Fuse/Relay bundle. What a mess it is/was. The mount for the ECU was very ragged, such that the ECU was supported by the points of two sheet metal crews. Rather scary.
The trouble is, I've no idea how the two things are supposed to be mounted. Does anyone have a suitable picture, or advice on how best to secure it all in the space, such that it's possible to actually access the fuses if required?
A few pictures for amusement.
Any feedback/advice most welcome.
Thanks, Nigel

The red plate looks like an original TVR mounting plate.
My fuse box was attached to something similar.

I agree, the red plate is original, should be attached to the roof of that void. But the "Meccano" brackets on the ECU look home made?

ECU should just be stuffed in with all the wiring etc and held up by the carpet (possibly glued to the carpet), yep that's how they did it!
