Ok Thanks, I've connected the other three wires but not tried the ignition yet. I'm going to get it checked by my electrician first.
Yes, but UK buses didn't have this fitted.Grey wire was for perm live for the key warning buzzer. (I think)

It looks like your bus was bought as transport for somebody who had difficulty getting around, or for a private care home.
Thanks thats great . I want to insulate under the seats better so that's an ideal time to photo that. CheersLook beind the cab seats. M plate is usually painted, VIN plate is not
Hi I know it's not a Westphalia. I owned one in the 80's. Mine was originally fitted out as an ambulance.Bus looks great from the picture. But it isn't a Westfalia. Wrong roof, and unless it's a SA import they never came in RHD. That looks more like a Devon conversion by the roof and the fact it's RHD.
The M Plate will tell you if it's a factory Westfalia, it should have at least one of these M Codes 517, 518 and D67.
Hi,Great pics Granite, glad you got fixed up, I remember your post when you were looking for your old van That pullout stove is a brilliant idea, we have a toilet there (wouldn’t want that on a pullout for obvious reasons ) … and you bought it off Bangers & Cash, I wonder if it’ll make the Telly.
Keep the updates coming they’re a good read
Thanks Granite, you’re right it is a labour of love but the end result always outweighs the effort.Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. I've just seen your rebuild pics. Awesome! Obviously, a labour of love, makes my efforts insignificant in comparison. I was interested to see your comments regarding the reversing light. That's a future job I'm planning to do. It would be great to know what problems you faced.
Regards,
Granite
