Fitted one in mine for the school car park. Works fine but annoys the neighbours early or late on.

Careful, the circuit that checks the ABS and TC relies on the brake lights, if they have the wrong resistance then the ABS&TC lights on the instrument panel will both come on.... happened to me.

Just take your own coke and sweeties, I do. But then again, I've learned a few tricks like that since I moved to Yorkshire. God knows what I'd be like if I moved to Scotland ;D
