am I right in assuming you can attach the info switch to get a working infocentre, or would the dealer need to 'turn it on'?

Please re-read my earlier statement - which I have now retracted!

Hahaha yes - I think you're right there too - it will display engine info, oil temp, external temp, miles to zero fuel, that sort of thing. However if you're retrofitting it Amebix (upgrading from your standard clock), i'm not sure how its activated, or whether it works just by plugging it in!

Hi mate, would you be willing to seperate the headlights from the black bulb caps? (The little covers that go on the back to protect the internals?)

Cheers.

Hmm yes, Thanks for your replies - I suppose it would be a slight gamble unless i knew weather it would indeed just be, "Plug and play" - Something which these cars aren't known for!

I'll tell you what - If the Instrument cluster hasn't gone in a week then i'll take it off of you. Obviously if somebody actually Needs it, it means that they can have it, rather than me snapping it up to feed my own curiosities!

Thanks guys

Jake.
