This is metioned a few times on the forum. If you read all the way through the topic on this link, it should sort you out.

Would they be the same to fit as these?

Why didnt I read this post yesterday...doh fitted it all together in the house put it all back turned on the ignition and nought to 20 in 0 sec...bugger
so then tried with it in place, pulled centre cap of needle and the soddin counter weights dropped behind the facia, retrieved these and dropped one down the side of the drivers seat, neccesitating removal of the seat.
apart from that and pulling the wire out of the rear fog light spade, a doddle....havent tried it yet though, could be :oops: .
