I can't see where this is supposed to be mounted. I have checked everywhere that is within range of the cable length but had no luck.

Yes Ivor it is a turbo. Despite the pics in the threads that DuncanVXR kindly provided the links for i still can't find it. My car just has a single fuse unlike the ones shown in the photos; i think that those are from an NA. I would really appreciate it if you could have a look when you have a spare moment Ivor. I am starting to think that whatever part it mounts to went missing during the rebuild that it went through after the shunt. I really need to see and photograph a completely standard car as there are other areas that i am not sure about. Thanks to all for your help.

Thanks very much Ivor. I don't have a smart phone but your information is enough for me to get around the problem. I just wanted to be sure that i wasn't missing anything obvious before i started fabricating a bracket.
