Ben
You need indicator warning light s
Main beam light
Fog warning light
Reverse lights
They need to be clearly marked you can either fit switches with symbols on or next to each light put a dyno tape strip with what it is on it
Also you need brake fluid warning level light
They will accept ign key and a button but there's a rule about security devices for anti theft I think you need two devices ,steering lock
Counts as one and immobiliser another
I'm a bit rusty on that side of things

Somewhere here there is a DTA wiring diagram I will see if it's available still it shows which pin outs go where on the output on the ecu

Wheel speed pick up can be taken from the bolt heads on the front disc by making a small bracket to hold the sensor so it's about two mm away from the head as it passes it
In the digi dash you can then set it up with number of bolts per revolution of wheel and rolling circumference of wheel in mm or inches
If you get stuck call me

Chears Chris I am going to struggle with a stearing lock I have got the race kit with the two bearings on I have made a bracket to hold the indicator stalks but there isn't room for a stearing lock so I may have fluffed that right up and what sensor is used as the speed sensor is it an off the shelf part or a spaciffic part to go with my digital dash I can see the wiring costing me a fortune the auto electrician wants £200 a day :(

I don't think you have to have a steering lock as such but need two security devices to prevent theft
You can get the Iva manual on line just have a look at the right section
Digidash has specific sensor from memory they are not too bad price wise

If I can find the wiring diagram that will help

Ben
If you look on the DTA and see what model it is then go on google there's wiring diagrams on there identifying which pins go to what parts of the engine
Is there a loom on the motor at all like wires to the plugs temp sensor v tec etc?
I think you will have a DTA s60

Yes mate its got a zcars loom with dta s60 management system the auto electrician I am planning on using wants to know what the spare wires and stuff are he's got to make it all work with the mini loom I would normally have a go myself but when it comes to wiring I haven't got the mentality for it I am finning a demon tweeks race dash 2 so I will have to try and get a speed sensor from them

Ben that could be air temp sensor
The Hondas ran them it should go on intake side of inlet manifolds on std car
I'm not sure if they were used on the data system
