ive just done it to mine. Its really easy cause all the wiring is already there and it is just a case of undoing some screws to fit it onto the dash.

first youd have to buy one from a scrappy or somet, then its easy to fit aslong as the MFD loom is there, then just take the centre consol bit out, find the loom and then screw it all together again! simple, it looks alot better with some leds of cobra148 so u2u him for some!!

Where did you guys find the loom? I've got a 96 Merit and theres no sign of it.. I've got the extra connector on my stereo harness for the display but i cant find the end that plugs into the MFD

Got to agree with you here. I find these will be more use to me.

They're perfect for viewing though, That pod is not to my liking so i've got hold of a different pod to fit there now.
imo the MFD is a waste of time. I have the time displayed on my head unit and I know when it's cold or hot outside I don't need an inaccurate temp display.

finally modernised my poverty spec dash lol!
I dont normally care about things like this but I striped a late spec corsa on sunday that had an MFD, later gearstick etc.. and I found the clock rings floating about in my stash of parts.. I have NO idea why I had them as I've never owned a corsa before this one.

Might be better off running your own wires to the outside temp sensor mate
