This is what is fitted to my 135 Isuzu crew cab and is fine most stage 1 Isuzu rovers had a similar set up fitted to the steering column that was locked out with the ignition switch
Yes, pretty proud
Just have to watch I don't end up missing most of my spares stash though...
Despite the general loathing for them, I've had zero issues with the EDIC on my county (one of the Mazda T3500 truck ones). Must be going on 4 years now since it was fitted. Only time I've had to disconnect it was due to an ignition switch issue on our Simpson trip last year. Agreed, a cable stop would have saved me 15mins and a bit of clutch stress when that happened.
For anyone else that may need to drive it occasionally, with the EDIC it also becomes a turn the key and go operation.
Pro's and con's for everything as always, but I think a lot of people ditch the EDIC due to LR's stupid "store it in a bag of water until it drowns" design , and then not taking the time to realise that they are VERY simple and generally easily fixed before throwing them out.
