Thanks Ian. Put the Eureka tow cables in a prominent position. Didn’t even bother with the plastic ones on the last kit.

These, though, should look really good.

Problem is the primer didn’t stick to the wire very well. Should be enough on it to cope, I hope.

Try to get some VMS Metal Prep. I have it and it works great on PE and copper stuff
