Is there anyone near to me who would be so kind and give a hand (or advice) in fitting one of these to my MY99, please?

Many thanks in advance.

I've just fitted one of these this weekend, would love to get together and see how yours reacts. Mine seems to be on red all the time when on light throttle, moving up to blue during wide open throttle, and dropping right back to red when I change gear?? Not sure how to actually read it? I presume red = bad, blue=good Feel quite muppet'ish at the mo

Have fun with getting the old lights out, and don't scrimp on the sealant when putting 'em back in - unless you like paddles in your boot

I can help you fit the Dawes in if you want in Santa Pod, shouldn't take more than 5 minutes. But you need the pinouts for the AFR. Oh you'll also need a soldering iron or Dr Banks will kick me in the *ss for a sloppy job.

Relax! The first to go is your clutch then gearbox and then finally your engine.

Kat you clearly haven't seen my soldering LOL. Whilst I know what bits to connect.... a guinea pig could solder better than me. Mind you, my wiring loom has stood up to a lot of experimentation
