Ahhhh....thanks mate. I did suspect something like that

I bought a black plastic chopping board for my dash/radio.:thumb2

Actually there was two in the pack, a small and a large one. The small one for the radio hole and the large one for the wife!:naughty:lol

Got them from house of Fraser.:thumbs

I've done similar, I bought a white nylon type chopping board once, just for the material, flexible and easy to cut, drill and smooth with the same tools you would use on wood.:thumb2

On the hazard light plug at the back of the radio, you need to join (via a switch)
the GREEN/RED WIRE to BLACK WIRE.:thumb2

I had the same problem, I joined the GREEN/RED to RED/BLUE via a switch, and they wouldn't work with the lights ON. Did as above and they worked!:clap

I used scotch-locks for ease.:augie

Sorry to bring up an old topic but does this mean you just ran these wires to a switch in your home made fascia and hey presto working hazards?

Also does ther switch have to be illuminated for the MOT as read this somewhere?

Yes to first question.:thumb2

Not 100% sure about second question, but I've had vehicles pass without illuminated switches. The MOT man just tests that the hazards are working.:augie

thanks for clearing that up for me, ive made a blanking plate but wasn't sure what hazard switch to buy as the proper nissan ones are quite dear but just a red rocker type should do and they are cheap.

AS for my 2nd question,sorry for the confusion its something I'd read somewhere but I think its bogus.

I think they are supposed to be illuminated, but most mot test stations are to brightly lit to be able to tell if they are or not, so they probably don't bother checking properly.
