I agree with leaving the cruise on - if it is working, or remove it completely if it isn't. You could blag the cruise because it is a manual box - sort of. Rear mirror you can get away with.

I would leave cruise on personally. If you get the seats working, I would put the proper mirror back on as well (they are only £10 - £20 from ebay - theres one on there BIN £19.99)

think you might be right, thinking about it when advertising an elite on autotrader, what can i list that would seperate it from a CDX or CD....

Think i will stick the cruise stalk back on, its slightly nakered anyway (constantant full beam does't work)

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

I really like that Diesel one you gave me, it has a nice soft touch for indicating and all its main functions work. I take it there is no point trying to make it work for a petrol?

Nope, it would mean stripping the stalk completely, taking out resistor network etc.  Sell it on fleabay - the diesell stalks aren't as common.  (Buyer may need to get cruise enabled in ECU - never checked a diesel to see if preenabled  or not)

No, I don't need. Sell it to cover cost of proper stalk.  At least we know you only need stalk, and that we got ecu enabled eventually...

Yeah, we kept programming it to say 'Cruise not Present'  Grin

Still want to go to the scrap yard today? - I still need that sensor and pump and the weather looks like its holding... just!

I'll prob go in a few minites if you want to come along?

I am watching a Haynes book on eBay, can't find the manual lever for the leccy seats, all the connections seam good  Undecided

There is no manual lever, you should have a bit of kit; like a little brace; for moving the seats when the electrics aren't working.
