Reson I want a digitax is because the digitax agent in Clydebank is very good from what I have heard from local taxi drivers majority of them have digitax, I am currently using a sheriff wayfare but in the superbs the dash has to be ripped out to fit a pulse wire and they do an exceptionally well job of it from all the reviews I've seen so that's why I want to go to digitax I have been looking around and I think a digitax f2 is what I'll be using |

(i.e. not the meter fitters), and not many factory agents want to sell 2nd hand meters as the profits not in them |

The place I work for fit it for the first time but I'll get the digitax man to do it a lot of the times the fitter and the base isn't in and I'm not waiting around for him digitax are more than happy to fit the lot for me and that does me just need to find someone to uninstall all the wiring for the equipment in my current car |

The superb 1.9 doesnt need any additional 'pulse wire' or better known as a canbus. Access to all electrics via glove box which takes two minutes to remove. |

I'm getting a 1.6 TDI they stopped making the 1.9 TDI engine in 2010 and the 2.0 and 1.6 diesels are all you get on the superbs now maybe different wiring |
