I just noticed the dome from daylight sensor (the sensor in the middle of the dash and the bottom of the windscreen) is missing will it affect the air con? can I get a new/second hand one?

Definately for the climate ;), the remote locking sensor on earlier car was a dome up by the sunroof switch! :y

I found out it's called a sun sensor.
just pulled it off to get a part number and the damn wire has dropped back into the dash, gotta go get some right-angled pliers to pull it back out now :(
it's just the dome that's missing the sensor is still there, well it will be when i get the wire back... ::)

Yes, its the solar sensor, and is used by climate panel. Yes the dome will make a difference I would have thought.
Note that preface and facelift ones are different (facelift ones - less reliable - have 2 sensors in it, as the more intelligent climate adjusts for which side the sun is shining)

got the wire back... phew :D
Here's a couple of pics of it:
