its a pea green wire. and ive done it to mine in since then theres been loads of people ask about them. it goes from back of the clocks to the ecu mate. theres a grey plug at the side of the ecu theyl be a green wire go in one end and not the other so just cut the wire and join it to a bit wire and run it to the clocks buddy.
