Reverse lights - presumably checked bulbs?

Window switch - replacement (2nd hand, usually fairly reliable)

odometer - does speedo work ok?

Most likely a failed - or tampered - speedo clock I think...

Replacing the entire instrument cluster only takes about 10mins.

There's a chap whole specliases in breaking Omegas near Heathrow and sells on ebay. He had 3 or 4 instrument clusters when I was there.

If you PM me I could dig out a phone number.
