I just finished the tailgate conversion and i have figured out all the wiring for the rear lights!
I'll post it up later for those who are interested and i hope they make it sticky!

Liebo :If I was to fit the Mk5 digital dials, how can I get them to read the correct milage?
I would want to set them to be the same of my existing dials...
Is it possible?
No idea mate, but it's not too likely that they can be easily changed. The digital idea is an anti-clocking device really.
You'll either have to live with it, or consult a Ford dealer to see if they can update your clocks.

If you can, do it. You can get away without it though but make sure the tailgate seals properly to prevent exhaust gases being sucked in.

Uhhm, the guides are the same or improved - I didn't remove any detail as far as I know...?
What are you on about?!
Anyway, it's at least a year since you bought that Mk4 tailgate off me - more like two actually!
