What looks to be 2 resistors just above the power steering pump... Could this be another thing i need to change if the cars running poorly.. What do they do, what are they.?

Ahhhhh for the Opera interior lighting mode. My Audi had the same. See TVR were pioneers for something.

My 400 SE has a little rotary dimmer, which switches the dash lamps through the resisters dimming the dash lights. They are knackered so bypassed for now.
