I think when you unplug the switch pack on the drivers door you lose electric Windows and central locking on the passenger door, you should be able to bypass the switch if you find the wiring to it and making it think the pack is connected.

You can disable abs by pulling the fuse for it. For removal you should be able just to pull everything out, you should fit a non abs brake proportioning valve though. Don't think it lights the dash with its control unit unplugged but if it does then just take the bulb out.

Plastic windows with cat flap so fixed no need for manual or electric mate. What cars can i get the non abs proportion valve from. Apart from the R's that did not have it fitted. Trying to remember which one was used last time ?
