Thanks to gsi160 I have managed to fit my mfd. He scanned me a copy of the wiring diagram and sent me it. The only thngs left to wire up now are the Headlight/Stoplights, Run a wire to the Ecu loom to enable me to get the Mpg also run a wire to the back of the instrument cluster.

I have the link somewhere on my PC at home Daz. So if you don't get what you want by the time I get home (no idea when that is) I will give you the link and post on here somewhere.
Me and Phill actually tested the headlight theory one windy night but gave up because it was far too late. We managed to get it working via running a wire to the earth of one headlight bulb but we never got to test tail lights or if we could use one wire for both headlights. Also need to wire up my oil level sender but not sure what to do, will just try giving one terminal a switch 12v live and the other going to the MFD.
Oh and VegasPhil, its very simple and no-where near as difficult as anyone makes out. Maybe I will make a guide if I can be bothered .

Oh and another thing. You are not going to like the hole we cut to make the bastard thing fit . But we had a dremel so it wasn't too bad for us.
