Swapping Lucas electronics for Marelli Motori Yeah, good move.
BTW early 1970s I worked for part of Lucas Group, I still defend their ability to make anything work in any way at all at the prices the car manufacturers would pay. You want electrical equipment that will work beyond your new car one year warranty? We can do it, add 100% to the price you pay us!
Bitter about the place I worked's reputation. Moi?

··Prolific Speedmaster HoarderLotus was bought by Chinese brand Geely, Proton was also bought by Geely too as they were struggling. They seem to be doing better under the Chinese though and are using Volvo switchgear and satnav now in their lotus cars.

·Didn't realize Phillips was Russian owned, another company to be wary of. Right now, in 2023, I don't think you can trust many Russian or Chinese owned companies, just too much western antagonism from my viewpoint.
