Looks spot on, exactly what I was just googling for, any chance you could either put up a list of parts and any issues you encountered or PM me?

Cheers

What about the climate control switches? Everything fits, right? You just plug in the cables and it works?

Did you use something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2001-to-20...item2a2ddbe248

I see that there is no place for the electric mirrors switch here.. On my bugeye it is behind the shift ****
