Hi everyone,

I would appreciate your help with my '54 RHD Standard, please.

I have attached four reference photos from the 'net, along with three photos showing my bus.

We are trying to install a new wiring loom, and are very confused about where and how it is supposed to enter the cabin.

For context, my bus had the nose skin and cab floor sections replaced with KF panels. There was very little of the oroginal loom in place.

I can see the hole under the RHS headlight bucket, when looking from the top. From underneath, it appears as if there is a horizontal, drilled hole.

I cannot see where and how the loom, once it exits the chassis rail, is supposed to enter into the cabin.

I'm guessing that my bus is missing a hole somewhere...

How is the loom supposed to get from here to there? What is wrong with my bus?

I would dearly love some reference photos shot from underneath, please.

Thank you.
