Hi,
As above, I'm looking for a passenger-side wing mirror and a diesel auto instrument cluster for an S1.
I'm also after front and rear bumper brackets (cuts) as all four of mine are completely rotted out!
Thanks!

What part of the cluster do you need, each gauge is separate. The only difference between manual and auto clusters is the gear selector Lcd display, for the auto and the back board that drives it.
I would just fabricate new bumper brackets, the chances of finding some in useable condition is very slim.

Preferably just looking for a whole unit as not much on mine works at all, not even the backlights!

The backlights are just regular incandescent bulbs, it's unlikely the cluster has caused the failure, much more likely the dimmer rheostat isn't connected.
If it is a failure of the circuit, it is most likely to be the solder joints on the connectors has cracked joints.
Due to the backlights being on all the time the ignition is on, it's common for many of the bulbs to be burned out.

I'd honestly love to, but I'm in Edinburgh so that's almost as far away as it's possible to get!
