TRbeginner Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 Hi All, The ongoing work on the TR5 led to the removal of the pedal box today. Thought Id removed all the bolts and wondered why it wouldnt move, until I notice two tiny almost flat bolt heads, (same colour as the paint work) on the upper side of the bulk head which were securing a bracket on the underside of the pedal box. See attached photos - it looks like a mounting bracket for a radio, but is slightly too small and what an awful position..! I cant find this part in any of the manuals/diagrams so am pretty sure its surplus to requirements but would appreciate confirmation (or otherwise) before I bin it. All opinions welcome. Many thanks, Dave ve Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Looks like a CB radio bracket to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tim T Posted October 30, 2020 Report Share Posted October 30, 2020 I would agree with Graham. I made something very similar for the 3a. Cheers, Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers, Tim Paul, Graham and Tim, Thanks all, for your replies. Youre confirming what I thought that it belongs to some extraneous accessory. When I acquired the car it had a graphic equaliser sitting in the glovebox and I'm wondering if it started life mounted under the pedal box frame - what an odd place though. Anyway the offending bracket wont be included in the rebuild, so thanks again all. Independent views help a lot! Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
