As above, although not for an XM, but for a lotus excel which appears to use the same switches, along with CX door mirrors!

Iirc, don't Lotus mid engined cars also use a Citroen gearbox from a Ds-Sm.

Yes the Lotus Esprit used Citroen SM gearboxes until the late 1980s when they started making big power versions. It ran the other way being behind the engine for RWD while it was designed for FWD and mounted in front of the engine on the SM, which led to more crownwheel and pinion wear.
