Sorted!! Here is a brief description if what I had to do to rectify the problem (turned out to not be that big, just confusing).

As the car has a 2 door wiring loom in it (front half), the main plug to the rear of the car is different (4 door), this plug is where the DCCD controller wires would normally run out of. On top of this the car has had an extra loom left in it at some point in its life of conversions so I had 2 x rear looms for 1 x front plugs, and no rear section with the DCCD wiring or controller.

To get around the wrong rear section and no DCCD wiring I traced the wires from the DCCD controller unit to the plug, I then got a cruise control plug which had been slightly altered to fit the DCCD wheel and pinned it into the 3 wires through the plug.. Wallah it worked. So I used the spare rear harness ABS wires which runs from the A pillar to the Gearbox (green wires in previous pictures), cut the DCCD wires from the back of the Controller side of the plug (to bypass the plug), soldered them together and the DCCD wheel/CC plug to the other end.

So a note to people who get a V5 halfcut etc that you may need to do this as a solution, or possibly pin the DCCD wiring into the back half of the Wiring loom plug.

Hope this can help someone in the future!!
