Yep not that impressed with ECS actually, this is the second problem I have had with this order. Nothing worse than waiting for car parts.... Oh hang on yes there is... waiting for car parts only to find them missing

Hey Harmsy, thanks for the write up mate. Sounds like lots of trial and error to get this to work for the RHD. Will definitely seek your advice prior to install.

Ill change my post above from Harmsy recommended, to Harmsy was buying one so I brought one too
