well finally got the spare wheel back in after 3 months out :shock:

water leak is definatly been fixed .

temp display fully wired and working (but reading -4 wen its 4 :? )
battery indicator is installed (it flashes crazy red when heater plug light is on. they really do drain a lot of power it seems)

things to do to finish off.

fit leather steering wheel (once ove got my new stalk for front fogs. may as well do wheel when doing stalk)
and fit front fogs. all wires fuses and relays seem to be there ive checked so hopefully with stalk and lights they will come to life..

There is a hole in the panel, and it's a cover for that hole - I assumed it was plastic, but it could be rubber mate
