Electronic control unit. Cover? 79 Super Conv.
« on: August 10, 2009, 11:31:40 am »

The control unit is located behind the rear seat.  I can't believe its exposed.  Where does it get mounted and does it suppose to have a cover?  Thanks Ralph S@Sm

It's a simple plastic cover...No big deal. I have pics but forget how to post them on here...Looks like Coppermine is no more?

Email me if you want pics of mine...won't be til tomorrow.

Ralph,
You can easily make this out of something like Coroplast (plastic cardboard). Not sure what the original one is made out of - it's almost like a soft ABS. I can trace you out a template if need be.

You have mail - pics sent.
