Johnny Boy Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 Hi all, after looking at my horendous wire loom on my Mk 2 Escort 1600 sport. I think I'm better off replacing it , rather than repairing it. So I'm looking for a loom, behind dash, and engine bay, but behind dash more important. I would consider modifying a Standard MK2 loom, or a 1600 sport one would be great. Please let me know of any for sale. Thanks johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 the only mk2 loom ive messed with, the loom was all one thing from front to back, with just a few additional looms for little items, and that was from a 79 RS2 custom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone will have one I can buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaileyMex Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 Wasn't there a company that sold new complete looms at one point? I think Darren @Posse had one made for one of his MK1's back in the day and @over_head_cam fitted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes new are available , but they are over £1200 , and I didn't want to spend that 😳 Used will do me 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take that sort of thing on normally, but I think making my time less of a ball ache with a head start of another loom , is the way to go😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even those who buy new ones seem to have issues. We all look and hope we never have to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Boy Posted June 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) Got one off a fellow Escort owner. Just need to change some plugs, and add the wires for rev counter, heated window and spot lights. 😁 "Thanks Mike" Edited June 3, 2022 by Johnny Boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
