The blower resistor is on the right (from the front) and at the bottom of the blower fan, next to the aircon unit against the bulkhead.

just done mine tonight, git of a job access wise, thanks for the location earlier in the thread I took that part of the loom off and removed the throttle box as well, made things a lot better, my plug had melted to the end of the old resistor though and I have had to make a new plug up, still it works now

that and the new dimmer switch which means I now have dash lights for the first time since I bought it means it was a good evenings work
