Thanks for the replies everyone.
I'm debating whether to do this solo or with some help. It strikes ne that the hardest part is the bullet connectors on the yellow green wire. Am I likely to have trouble with these?
Many thanks
Matt
Those red blue or yellow insulated crimp connectors are the work of the devil, damned things are more trouble than they are worth.
Much better of with un insulated crimp connectors you carefully crimp over the tangs and then use a little solder to ease the deal as it were followed by some heat shrink tubing to insulate.
I have fitted that system to a 2002TF. Very happy with the results:
I added a low-current-demand LED, which I positioned in the vacant "Transmission Fail" instrument panel position:
I have had a couple of brief False Alarms, only when ascending steep hills & cornering. My wife finds it annoying that it sounds both when ignition turn to 1st position, then again at engine start, but I like that "feature": You KNOW it is "available for duty". To kepp the buzzer & wife quiet, I have added a switch between buzzer and the "output" side of the circuit, so that ONLY the light illuminates when:
1. Wife is in car
2. I have remembered to isolate the buzzer!
Other pictures you might find helpful if you choose the LED route (assuming your car is NOT Steptronic/Stepspeed)
P.S. If you fancy a trip to East Devon (Honiton area), I would be happy to show my set up and offer guidance on how I routed wires, chickened-out of using reversing-light feed and found spare output on fuse box etc.
P.M. me if you need to

Thanks - I've gone ahead and purchased one this morning.
I have a few questions and would be really grateful for help in answering them:
1) What glue can be used to attach the sensor to the expansion tank? I'm looking for a glue that won't compromise the integrity of the tank plastic
2) Is there anyone local to Southampton/Eastleigh who could help me fit this kit?
Many thanks
Matt
