Yeah I will defo come up mate and you can get your missis to do me a brew!! I got it from a mate that runs a company called speedycom, they fit them on there race bikes, got all the sensors to monitor speed, revs 11k rpm!! Don't think i'll be needing that tho lol, lap and split times, also can monitor oil, fuel etc but not using those functions, as I've got the gauges for those!
Update:
Managed to squeeze a few hrs in today!
Seats now perfect in situ! Also made up my electrics panel (see picture)

Mega Rear downforce!!
MOT should be fine as they are used in road legal kit cars, it's a lot lighter than the OE dials, also much brighter (visable) wiring is very easy, you get full instructions and they have a help line but I'm not sure the help line would be much good if your ringing from Finland! Website also has a help section!
Update:
