So after a while of everything running smoothly with the 90, I was driving down the road, indicate to change lanes and the windscreen wipers start going, then after an hour both windscreen wipers and indicators have stopped working(including hazards). I believe it to be an earth issue as I've had the dash out and checked all the wiring I can and can't find anything wrong. Cleaned the earth's on the bulkhead then moved onto the gearbox earth.
Tried to undo the bolt attaching the earth's to the gearbox and the bolt has snapped off leaving the earth's dangling. Any ideas where I can move these cables to? Can't drill the bolt and try to remove as the chassis is in the way. Thanks in advance.
 
you can either add more cable on the earth strap and stick onto another bolt on the gearbox. Its not an issue as long as its attached and earthed.

Thanks for your help, found a threaded hole about half an inch above after I cleaned all the mud out of the way, I didn't even need to extend the wires luckily
