Sadly that's why I refrained from using UKLOTC...as much as I'd love to trust them....
Indeed, didn't seem to be worth the chance to me.
Incidentally, I might have a contact at Lotus that can get these to me direct.

well done for keeping this little gem till now G ......

I put myself down on this thread as being interested, and I still am. I was one of the guys who 'bought' one from UKLC only to find that they had changed their mind (not that they told me, it was up to me to call to inquire why it hadn't turned up). I was happy to pay £165 to fix the problem... but £400+... I think I'll just put the switch in and hope that a second hand 4 channel unit turns up at some point.

That is a 2 channel unit, not a 4 channel one. The TRW ref should end in 1813 for a 4 channel unit.hello guy what about this part ?

On the Lotus one I received it also had a different colour drawn across the metal parts to the VX220 one I took out. Stangely that one doesn't have any lines at all?

Just took my car out now after the install - ABS light was lit on ignition but went out after less than 10 meters. This is how the ABS system should have been from the start; far less sensitive and when it kicks in it actually does something. Very glad I did it.
Just thought I'd update the thread with my thoughts on the upgrade for the future generations!
