    Hey guys,
    Just attempting to fit my new boot, come up with a problem.

    I disconnected my old one, via unplugging the cables, then pulling them through the side, now I can work out how to put the cables from the new boot is, as they won't fit in the hole at the top, I tried it with the earth, but i cant find it :/

    Any help/ advice will be appreicated

    Regards

    I changed my boot lid.
    To do so, i took off the rear slam panel, and disconnected the earth, and two plugs one brown, one blue, i them pulled from the top, and got them out.

    I then put the new boot lid on, feed the wires down and cant find them

    No, when you open the boot, a light comes on, took that cover off (near where the back seats clip)

    Good but for future reference when I did mine I tied some cord to the cables then used an old magnetic pick up tool.I sawed the end off then attached the cord to that & was able to pull the wires through,the wire that caused me grief was the 3rd brake light wire.

    you shouldn't have a rear locked belt. theres a little ball bearing in the belt which controls a catch. chances are its just moved and locked the catch.

    take it off and give it a wiggle and the ball should fall back into place properly
