Im putting an early xe into a 1.4 sport and I want to use one of them twag conversion looms if I can get hold of one?? And I want to know what wiring I need to keep from the Corsa? I want to sell the 1.4 engine but not realise after Ive sold it that I've sold it with a part of wiring that I need!

engine can go with the full engine loom, basically everything from the plugs in the drivers kick plate forward, all you need is the woring from the engine loom plugs back and the charging loom off the engine that goes from the battery to starter and alternator

In the drivers footwell there is a plug that looks like this:

unplug that all pull the loom up through the bulkhead into the engine bay.
Then at the back of the engine, there is a plug(on the right in the pic below)

Follow that plug back to the alternator and starter motor and remove it from them.
The rest of the wiring can go with the engine as you WILL NOT need it
Hope this helps

I've taken out that main loom that was linked to the ecu,so now that terminal and the 2 plugs you've pictured is that what I leave in the car and the rest I don't need?
