I have one too somewhere for a D8 (downloaded it), I must admit not to have looked at it too closely. Errr, it's in Polish, I can actually read some of it (sam naprawiam - make alone, by yourself, fix it yourself, D.I.Y.)

It appears to be a translation of an Études & documentation de la Revue Technique Automobile for the 406. Errr, which I also seem to have (and have completely forgotten about too :oops: )

I'm just looking at the French one, it seems to be loads of disjointed pdfs, which is why I haven't looked at it much. Searching for the electrical stuff I've come across one labelled "carrosserie" (bodywork) which is pages and pages of what each individual panel looks like, shut lines, cross sections of where the panels join, where to cut and prepare for changing panels (including sills :shock: ) and lots of jigging diagrams. Wow!

It does look interesting yes, unfortunately I can't find any wiring diagrams :(

The French one looks like it'd work as a clickable manual if I was daft enough to put Abobe Acrobat on my pc, so it should be possible to copy & past stuff into Google. The Polish one is just bad scans so that's not going to be happening.

I can't see it on the bay. I've tried searching for a larger version which would hopefully include the wiring diagrams but all I'm finding is sites that want to fill my hard drive full of evilness :evil:
