Default Sports differential warning light

I've read the treads about the sensor(s) brown and black, not to do them at the same time etc. but has anyone on the forum actually done it on a UK D4? If so was it easy? I understand you have to fabricate a special 27mm socket, again that is not a problem, just wondering.
Don't worry, I've found the thread again (on here under the right section), Just don't know how to remove this post!!!!!

Mine was done by a dealer under warranty, worth noting they overfilled the diff and it tended to spot oil on the drive on hot days for a while after - an issue that resolved itself.....

..... and then I resolved the issue of oil on the drive
