Does to micro switch plug into anything on the seat runner or is it just pressure activated? If the latter could you not just tape the fecker down to turn the light off? Theres been hurdrends you've manged to fit aftermarket seats on here and get all the lights out so it must be possible, my...
I think the micro switch is a seat position sensor, so it can gauge how far to deploy the air bag in the event of a crash based on how far back the seat is positioned.
Just forget about it and tuck it out the way, as you'll deactivate the airbag system with the new seat anyway as you'll be...
You can get a 11mm flare spanner from Halfords for around £7.

Done mine recently and need to take it off again to bend it slightly. As above its a bit fiddly, wouldn't be paying someone to do it though as its only 4 bolts under the heatsheild, I did however have to undo my scorpion decat as well as there wasn't enough room to get the thing in and out...
You'll be fine mate, the indicators wont self cancel and the TC will be disengaged, no biggie as its an intrusive POS system anyway. I've got the OMP boss on my FF by the way, and sometimes the TC will disengage and sometimes it wont, so I just turn it of when getting in it.
I've just declared mine SORN and it will now be trailered next year due to this dilemma. Local guy charges £50 a day for a car transporter and I'll just hitch it up to the Mondeo, job done.
Awesome picture. Metal on metal there, did your pads delaminate? Maybe the pump, master and sensors are different on a ph1? Dunno just find it gash.
Op if selling totally pointless as it will be a PITA to do then refit.
It doesn't have enough clamping force and if you can get it to kick in it spits you to one side. I run 888s and CL5+ and there's not even a hint of it kicking in on track. And reliability, Jesus wept. So far I've had 2 pumps and a wheel speed sensor, and who's bright idea was it to change it to...
A TC'd car will normally over fuel when they have a boost leak creating black smoke. Just check all the pipework for loose connections, check for splits in the intercooler etc...
As stated learn from this, but make sure you contact the police as there maybe footage, like this idiot below, bet he didn't realise he was on camera...
Wow if what you're saying is the 'full' story then this guy needs locking up ASAP. Sure you didn't brake test him or goad him in anyway? As the guys actions are of a very, very angry man, one who has real psychological issues if unprovoked as you say.
