Do you have the OEM SatNav? Can you document and take pics of the install.

The two guys that bought, I'm guessing, should have their units now?...

You're right mate we should. There was a delay and have been assured that we will have them for the weekend. I have been speaking with professor x and we will share our experience when they are installed.

If you don't mind, could you get a few pics of installation? Like where you route wires and antennas/GPS?

Finally fitted the Andrive System. Had to cut away part of the plastive cage to get it to fit.  It was because the new system comes with a 7" screen and had to move the main body upwards.  The 6.5" would have slotted straight in.  Anyway, here is a picture of the area I cut out. I then had to fit a universal metal cage from Halfords and fasten it in.  There are probably other options but I only though of this at the time and it sits in nice.  Will upload some pics after my tea  :))
