Wires along driver's side rocker/sill - a couple questions, please

[Healey3000]

Hi,

 

The wires from the seatbelt and seat switches as well as the parking brake switch dive into the rocker area at the driver's door.  Any pictures of how this area looks without carpet?  Do the wires go through the rocker, that is, it the rocker a hollow section?

 

I've read here that the backup switch wires emerge into the cabin from the tunnel someplace on the driver's side.  Where exactly do these wires run?  I want to make sure I don't damage them in the process of removing the seat belt harness.

 

Thanks!

I was just tracing the reverse light wires today. They come out at the bottom of the trans tunnel right by the front of the drivers seat mount and cut straight across to the wires under the door sill. Sorry I can't answer your other questions.

they don't run inside the sill, just along a groove, with metal tabs to keep them in place. Includes the whole rear loom for lights etc.

Here's a couple of pics that may help you. The loom runs along the inside of the rocker, up & over the seat mount, and eventually to the rear seat area, up the edge of the rear shock tower and then into the trunk.

Thanks all, for the spot-on information.  This is most useful.  Will try and extract these specific wires over the weekend (if it isn't raining).
