Yes, you have AC, but it's turned off when that "ECON" button is lit up.

Dual zone as well. Nice.

Just need the plug for the sensor,as i expected i have a light,easily sorted just waiting on some small shrink tubing.

 

BARGAIN!!! cheers

Can't recommend Eddie-NL enough.... even dropped me off at my Hotel so i could spend time on beach with kid's while he worked hard.

And also cruise control which was a doddle for drive home,which was interesting journey in itself,as you will see from pictures.

 

Well worth it though,already planning next trip...Load's for kid's to do on sea front,Ed is a 10min drive from.

 

Many Thank's Ed nice chatting and i'm sure we will meet again   :thumbup:
