Finally up and running with the Nav unit. I'm OCD about sticking things to the window and having wires all over the place, so it had to be integrated.

Job turned out bigger than we (myself and Carl Baker) expected as one of the stupidly large naff rear speakers was dead, and the replacements were a bit smaller...

The antenna that came with the Becker Indianapolis was also not working properly - but hey I snatched it on ebay for £60 and they are normally £200 plus, so not complaining!

The unit calibrates it self to the cars speed pulse and has Giro which makes it really accurate and stops it losing its marble in tunnels etc.

Getting as much as 7 satellites with the antenna on the underside of the dash. Odly just moving about under the dash a few cm's made a big difference - fibreglass must affect the signal...

It's a bit scary under the dash I have to say!
