According to the instructions I have for the genuine footwell lights kit, the wire you need to tap into is the "6-pin white connector on the ETACS-CPU" behind / below the glovebox.

If you want to PM me an email address, I can send you the files.

Hiya, The OBD port is in the driver's footwell. Draw a line straight back and up from the accelerator pedal. Where the line hits the lower edge of the plastic trim (about where your knee / shin goes) is where the port is. Have a feel around with your fingers and you'll find a rectangular hole about ...

How many Kay's on the clock and what kind of $ to fix it

Just on 235,000km and all up (including the tow to the mechanics) $1400. Mechanic said it was more than likely the original chain, too.

For people with the same problem in the future - in my case the timing chain had stretched enough that none of the timing stuff lined up.

I would hope so. People like that need to be taught a lesson in how to look after their belongings...

I dislike shopping[*], so it's a matter of making a list at home, then zooming through the shops to get as much done as quickly as possible... Using Google Keep's "checklist" notes makes a shopping list really easy if you're always buying the same stuff. Just un-tick the items you need to ...

Yeah, still here. Just don't post all that much these days.

I parked next to you the other day, but left before you got back to your car. (Is that a 'spotto' by stealth? )
