just a quick one
if i install a high series BEM at the same time as the cluster, will i still need to add that diode/resister so the lcd's illuminate? |

No but you will need to change the headlamp switch and maybe the wiper stalk depending on your model - your profile suggest a futura so the stalk will be OK.

as he said, however you add the resistor when adding a fairmont cluster to a gli/futura/xr.
remove when going low spec cluster to higher series dash loom.

Also the wiring from the switch to the BEM needs to be modified, or changed.

is a high series bem a straight swap to gain things such as fade in and out on interior lamps?

Fade should happen with the Futura BEM

High series requires wire mods and a fair bit of stuffing around, A Mid series gives you Light fade, intermittent wipers, also time delay on window circuit. and is a direct plug in (ef-ef or el-el) http://www.fordmods.com/forums/documents.php?doc=49

maybe it does, i havent actually checked, altho i do have intermitant wipers and also time delay on power windows.
Does any EL bem make the lights come on when key is turned off? |

lights on when key is turned off...no E-series does this as far as I'm aware.
I upgraded my BEM in the XR6 with a high series one doing the climate control conversion. It was easier to just replace the dash loom with a high series one, then everything is just plug and play. |
