i suppose that was my question in a roundabout way....who can do it, just your normal car mechanic or would i need a specialist electrical type fitter, maybe a audio specialist?  dont they do loads of wiring etc to cars for audio?

Thanks for the reply shadrack, issue is im crap at electronics and so are most of my mates, other issue is the car is AUC so dont want to risk messing the warranty with a "non compliant" install at this stage. I would rather look at costs to get it done by the pro's and have the backup. If its silly ...

Hi

Thanks X5Sport
