no it is not. first of all the two small plugs from your loom wont fit the sockets ont he instrument cluster, however you can make it fit by filing the teeth on your green plugs. when you manage to fit it. you will notice that the number 15 fuse in the fusebox under the steering wheel, blow, once you turn the ignition on. this fuse operates the air con etc. you will have to cut the yellow and green cable (no 29) on the main (big) green plug.it is the third wire from the end on the top row. by cutting this cable you will not upset the performance of anything in the car. it is totally safe to do.just make sure you isolate the cut wire properly. and then it is ready. enjoy

The reason you have a buzzing noise is because the old guages required a power source for illumination, whereas the new ones are lit from the main circuit inside the unit.



You need to cut wire C9 to stop the buzzing.



Make sure you cut the wire quite far up so that you can reconnect it easily should you ever want to put your old guages back in as with this wire not conected you will have no light to the old guages.



I did mine last week, great improvement for me.

Look good mate.

To get the rear diff temp light off you need to ground cable B4.

On your model of car the ABS light plug is reversed so the ABS light somes on and goes off when you have a problem with the ABS.
