Great write up but does anyone one have any pictures of one fully installed. Also how much are these kits to buy?

Go for the relay holder that has nothing in it - left-most, centre pin in the on the top row. These are in the rear right fuse holder...

I bought the full kit 3 years ago, went to order the o/h console and found it was discontinued, tried Germany and the States, no joy.
Sold it on Ebay for Â£25 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! earlier this year.
Lost over Â£350.
I will never learn
