Just a wiring loom that plugs between mafs sensor loom and connector to tell ECU to keep EGR valve closed/ also blanks comms to EGR codes (as seen from my scan gauge)
useful little bit of kit, bought mine off ebay for 50 bucks.
Hope that helps
Now I'm trying to find wh I have fuel bleed back after 3 hrs of corrugated track driving (replaced two filters, hoses and prime lifter pump) could it be the dreaded relief valve on the fuel rail?

ok , so the harness is basically the pink wire maf mod . with the air leak , you could replace the last flexible fuel hose before the Injector pump with a clear one temporarily ( make sure there is a upward loop in the hose ) . if after sitting over night air leaks in somewhere before the IP , it should collect at the top of the loop . have a look at it before starting the car , if there is no air bubble there get someone else to start the car while you watch the hose to see if any air comes thru . if you see air there the problem is somewhere between there and the fuel tank . a cheap and easy test before playing around with anything after that point .

I have the same model, I was my happiest with an exhaust, intake clean and retune. Not a cheap process but worth the money.
What was the issue with the drivers door lock?

Interesting. I have to investigate a similar issue in mine. Can you please point out the thread where you found the solution?

Old dreaded door lock mechanism loses central pivot that holds it together when locking and unlocking - more noticable using central locking on remote.
Could get bad to point it jams up and have to chisel inside door cover off to open door.
Plastic rivet which snaps so remove and replace with steel bolt and nut.
