Little Caution
HI,
in terms of fitting the ECU is a straight swap, but you may have to have your keys recoded for the immobiliser. If you swap the ECU's over and the car cuts out after a few seconds you will need to take the car, ECU and keys to a dealer to have it recoded.
I swapped for a PPP ECU in mine and the dealer charged me £18 to recode the keys
cheers
