Central locking confusion

I have a 96 2.5Td 4 wheel drive. Central locking from drivers side. Doesn't look standard as the wire that runs from the door to the body sits outside the main loom.

Re: Wiring in rear camera

Great. That's what I was thinking. If I get the right connectors, can I take power from the head unit loom, so that I run this one "mother" cables to the same place, rather than splitting the video to the head unit and the power to somewhere else?

I wa...

Tappets

I am due to change the rocker cover gasket on my 96 2.5 TD. At the same time was considering adjusting tappets as I understand this is a good idea. Can I turn the crankshaft from the top? Is it a case of just getting a 38mm socket and turning whilst engine in neutral?

Thanks

Mystery wire under centre console

Any idea what wire connected here? A section of it was attached but tore off. Wasn't going anywhere. Looks nasty here generally. Any idea what can cause this?
