Sorry VC only just seen this, i'll PM u my mobile number.

I'll have to flick through the manual to re-fresh my memory, but i'm sure u need switchable live, permanent live, earth and possibly illumination, all these can be picked up off the stereo wiring, although i think i took the switchable live feed for mine off the cig lighter.

well got it sorted
it's like the ironing board on hard.
but because of me trying to do 3hrs work in 50mins forgot to sucure harness that runs across front bay the loom must have touched the turbo and melted through it what a sod
nevermind
btw not a hell of a lot of difference in the setup that was on there though
but it was set up for the rally of france in 2002

Richie, if you want the alignment done properly take it to A&A tyres in Cardiff (right behind the CVC dealership) They have two 50k+ alignment bays and won't rip you off. Top quality place.

well sorted wiring out and boyo boyo bach
not massive difference to what i had on but you do notice better responce on the rebound on the damper on hard.

really chuffed that its not a massive difference to what i had because i quite liked the way it handled with the original setup

nice little upgrade for someone if interested pm me
