1991 Santana Samurai
Re: 1991 Santana Samurai
Purchased a 7" lamp mounting set [usually for Mini, MGB et., which needed to be modified for the Samurai.
Cut the shell with a Dremel as near to the support ring as I could and then ground the edge down till almost flat.Re: 1991 Santana Samurai
First stage, located outer ring positions for beam adjustment screws. 12mm diameter holes required. There are in addition 4 No fixing points.
After much measurement, remeasure, relocation drilled holes in stages, 3, 5, 8, 10mm and finished off with a file.

Re: 1991 Santana Samurai
Bits of work been done. Nothing major mainly electrics.
Found windscreen washer had 2 pumps. Seems original was not replaced but inline pump put in. Outlet to that has snapped off and so I am sorting out replacement system.

Decided to replace the washer pump as it's replacement had arrived.
What a nightmare getting the old one out. Much swearing and cursing but eventually it was out.
New one was fiddly to get in but , in the end we got there!!
