danregs - the leds didnt fuck the mfd. When you remove the mfd it can harm the pins in the back, making them go loose, as its crappy vauxhall electrics. This is probably the problem your having monkey magic. You'll need a new mfd from a scrappy, will only be about 5 quid

to be fair, vauvhall didnt design the MFD to be removed/re-fitted all the time, so damage should be expexted if enough care isnt used
