Is this something you have actually done, where did you get the led 
Any pics  Never get mad - get even !!

Where do you get the software up-dates from? I have a blackbox faultmate MSV and wondered what was involved to up-date the software?
Thanks for any help you can offer
Seasons greeting to all

disco_steve -
Yes I did this mod on mine after having had the function activated by Gordon at 4-Tech, mainly because I had already acquired a RRS dash as a donor for parts. I used the clock overlay, (the printed plastic sheet with the clock markings and warning light symbols,) and swapped the relevant led from the main circuit board, there are quite a number of green led's on there.
Or you could get a similar type like this : -

and just stick with the FBH symbol instead of the lights one, I guess it doesn't really matter that much so long as you know what it means.
Edit to add - sorry no pics  Clive
