Are Premier wiring really this slow?
I have got Alan to provide me with a wiring "kit" before for the F1-2 but that was when he was in Woking. I made up my own loom in the
correct Lucas colours.
I have emailed him and phoned him over the last 3 weeks and sent him a list of wiring colours I need for the MotaLeira.
He has read my emails as I have "read" reciepts, but he has not come up with a price.
I am begining to think that all he wants to do is sell coils of wire on ebay.
Anyone else had this experiece or can recommend another supplier?

He seems to be 100% dragging his feet this time!
My last email was read last friday.
I am not desperate for the wiring it is just that I would like it ready when I am.
The MotaLeira should have the floor finished in a few weeks so I will be able to start putting it back together and start wiring.
No wonder our cars take so long to do, when quotes take more than 3 weeks! 
This is what I am after if anyone can help:
LH Main Beam Blue/Grey 5m
RH Main Beam Blue/Green 5m
LH Dip Beam Blue/Pink 5m
RH Dip Beam Blue/Black 5m
LH side light Red/Black 15m
RH side light Red/White 15m
LH indicator Green/Red 15m
RH Indicator Green/White 15m
Rear Fog Red/Brown 10m
Reverse Light Green/Brown 10m
Stop Lamps Green/Purple 15m
Tach Black/Brown 10m
Radiator Fan Black/Green 10m
Brake Warning Black/White 10m
Main Beam Warning Blue/White 5m
Starter Solenoid White/Red 10m
Fuel Pump White/Purple 10m
Horn Purple/Black 5m
Hazard Feed Purple/Green 5m
Oil pressure switch White/Brown 10m
Low fuel Warning Green/Orange 10m
Ign Warning light (colour?) 10m
Bike Neutral (to interlock reverse starter) Light Blue/White? or other 20m
Reverse starter solenoid feed (suggest colour) 10m
I plan to put a relay on the bike engine neutral through a relay so that the Reverse starter cannot be engaged with the engine in gear.
Main Feeds:
Brown Main Charge lead 8m
White Ign main feed 8m
Blue Main Lighting feed
Red Main Battery Feed 9m (bike engine)
Black for earthing lighting/horn/accessories etc

Haven't used them for a year or so, but always found the service very good.
On holiday maybe with a non-technical "helper" manning the email/phone?

I recomended him for a mates project car as I didnt have the time to do it for him from scratch.
I have since been fitting this to the car.
I was not that impressed.
It was incomplete, slow and the quality of some conections was very poor.
I feel he has gone the way of many other suplier that gets bad press on here. He can not keep up with demand but doesnt like to turn work away
either?

Much as I prefer the personal tough, Autosparks.co.uk allows you to select grade, colour and length, and then order and pay online.
Normally pretty darned quick, too..

Another vote for Vehicle wiring products - can either order on line via their very good interface, or by phone when they are really good with advice
as well.....

It took a couple of weeks for my order over the summer, he doesn't 'do' email apparently as he gets too much stuff via Ebay to sort
through, but it took about 10 minutes via the phone and was pretty helpful.
If you don't mind having to phone to do your order and check everythings in stock etc, then you should be ok, personally that puts me off a bit
which is a shame, as I was pretty happy with the loom and components.
