S2 Frame Bulkhead correction.
As I was going over the installation of the cooling tubes I found a helping hand pdf on what went where template. After installing the tubes and looking for something else to put together, Certified was installing his choke cable and I was making a stainless bracket for the cables. That’s when I noticed the pdf was incorrect. The two holes for the choke and heater were missing.
So which be is choke / heater or heater / choke ? See pictures.
I will post a new pdf as soon as I get a few replies.

I can't help you with where to route the choke and heater cables but I would advise you to use grommets around your transfer tubes where they go through the frame. They'll likely bang around and possibly contribute to damage to the tubes and/or the frame.
edit: looking at it more closely, I think I would use the hold reserved for the vacuum hose (if not equipped and I don't know why you would need a vacuum hose going toward the front of the car).

Pacing myself, BDA. Lol it’s been way to hot and rainy lately to work in the garage.

Dave, the top two small holes are for the heater cable and choke cable. Put grommets in them first.

Certified, Yes , I read your post. That’s what got me going on the drawing. Those holes weren’t even on the print that was on lotuseuropa . Com. . I bent way down and there they were just as you said.
So choke left ,heater right. Hmmm I wonder if right hand drive it’s the opposite?

I'm pretty sure that on my car it's heater left, choke right. But I'm not home so I can't look :(

My car is heater left choke right, which is the orientation of the devices they attaché to.
