Just wanted to know if there was anyway I could get the temperature reading on the MFD working again? Apparently the sensor for this is connected to the fog lights on the standard front bumper and won't work if aftermarket bumpers are fitted.

sum bumpers implement original fog lights. if this not the case unplug the fogs keep original loom and just keep sensor plugged in and mount somewhere

yeah the sensor for the mfd is in the lower grill so all you need to do is hook it up somewhere and like bubblevaux said use the original loom

Yeh this maybe be bull sh*t mate, but I wouldn't know as I don't work for Vauxhall

I have the Reiger front which doesn't implement the original fogs so I suppose I would have to keep the original loom. Has anyone else done this?

all youd have to do would be do cable tie the wiring harness behind the bumper, there is a joint on the passenger side front where it unplugs. you can unplug it and re-route. alternatively, if the bumper comes with fogs, wire the fogs into the original wiring. dont cut the plugs off though, just pick up feeds from them. if u see behind the bumper you'll understand what we on abooooot
