two of the worst examples of hall sensors you'll likely come across - I wonder why I had problems all along?

if you see this post Robbi, thank you very very much for all the help.

Wonder why they crack.
I bought some spares from breaker as i think Toyota used them.
Two came with cylinder, cheap.
Turned out both worked, but both had hairline cracks.

Yeah I bought a couple from BMW dealership (Plymouth) for £14 a pop, think they were the 1 or 2 series cabriolet parts which I then bought the connectors for. Absolute doddle all in all I just put off doing it for so long.

Makes me wonder if there is just one design studio that creates all these roofs as they all seem to use same parts and similar functionality.
Ferrari with almost same folding roof as Zed. Same parts on Lambo's.
