    I have done this mod including fitting overide switch and also hacking the dashboard indicator to work with it.
    I did fit new ceramic glow plugs, with the timer they will outlast the engine.
    Metal tip glow plugs are cheap arse and will fail even with timer they will probably last at best 50,000 kays. Ceramic ones lasts 100,000 km with standards 5 minutes glow time so with timer at 30 secs I have no intention of doing the job again.

    Cheers

    Here is my take on it ==>
