In China they dont have the loom,enquiries have been made.It would be nice if some do turn up somewhere,there are a few clocks springing up brand new in the uk but no looms.
OK well I'll update everyone when I hear... this guy seems pretty sure he's got them coming.

My contact at MGUK is contacting the Shanghai arm of Leoni with a view to ether getting some looms or finding details of what they were made up with (plugs etc) - fingers crossed. I explained they are starting to come on to the 'second hand spares' market and that owners looking for upgrade parts are keen. He seemed open to helping and saw the value of keeping any MG on the road as it is a good thing for the marque generally.

UPDATE - I now have contact details for the Shanghai office of the manufacturer. Have sent an email with required details and waiting with bated breath!
In the mean time I have also stalked a couple of their senior execs on LinkedIn so if I don't get any joy I'll be messaging them for assistance!

The branch of the company (Leoni) in Shanghai do not answer emails - I tried Twitter for their European arm but no answer either!
If we could get a scrap one we could maybe get them made up - it's getting the first one!

UPDATE:
So I still haven't found the elusive wiring loom however look what I've found:
This is the 30 pin grey connector that fits in the back of the LE clocks.. except it lurks behind the radio of a RENUALT SCENIC!!! So got me thinking.. and I found this on eBay:
2003 RENAULT MEGANE SCENIC FRONT DASH CLOCK INFO RADIO DISPLAY UNIT

The red socket is the same as the 15 pin red one on the LE Clocks!
So now I need to find a Scenic in a scrappy (or I believe a Mk2 Clio or a Laguna for the red one)... then see what can me done. Of course this still relies on finding someone with a Chinese TF who's willing to photograph the actual plugs so wiring colours can be matched! But it's a step forward....
