just had the wife email me one of the pics she took on her phone from Cholmondeley Pageant of Power - I was offered a sit-in by the owner of this stunning Lancia Integrale Rally car.... couldn't say no of course

in the words of Kryten..."ah, smug mode."

Now there's an idea how/ where do you do that, wirings not really my forte, but with some instructions I'll make it ok,

So I'm guessing no ones actually done this, or they're not willing to divulge how as no answers yet

Yeah, just remove the warning cluster, run a wire from the live and earth of the battery warning light to a bulb in the ABS slot (but put some tape over the copper connections in the hole).

Don't even need to earth, as they're all common, just the live required.
