      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi<br />
<br />
I need some coding help - I can&#039;t see my dials in my preferred driving position and would like to code in the digital speedo.  Ideally I&#039;d also add turning of auto start/stop and shutting off entertainment when driver door opens, though they are less critical.<br />
<br />
Anyone know anywhere in or near gloucestershire that could assist?<br />
<br />
Thanks]]></content:encoded>
