RE: [doc] Wiring Harness

[Johnstone Richard <richard.johnstone@xxxx>]

The final 2 nuts attach a fairly thin piece of metal towards the bottom
front of binnacle to the steering column holder. This piece of metal (or it
may be 2 separate pieces) screw into the bottom of the binnacle with 2
screws. Therefore you have the option to either unscrew 6 nuts, or 4 nuts
and 2 screws. I chose the 2 screw option, I think becuase the access to
those 2 nuts was more difficult, and I could easily get a good grip on the
screws.

I think it also made replacement slightly easier, 4 bolts to get through
holes in one go, then align screws, rather than 6 at once.

I reckon it comes down to which you can get best access with the tools
available to you.

There should be 6 nuts holding the binnacle down... *shrug*
