Not at all atm Tone
I got it taken out of my classic to go in this one, I've got the screen installed in another surround, but I've yet to get a decent set of speakers for the front and install the whole lot.
Fast running out of funds this year with the nurburgring looming too

Neanderthal, just been trying to do it again Big thanks
Now please talk me through how you do it, as the instructions I've got are crap!

"Its easy mate. What ive done is cropped the pic to how i want it, mess around with levels and usm until im happy, then open up a duplicate level and convert to infra red film with about 70% flare, pick erazer tool and eraze bck parts of the image to its original in the first layer. Easy, just takes a while to eraze!" SEE WHAT I MEAN!

I used Photoshop.
Load the original image,
On the top menu, click Image-Adjustments-Hue & Saturation
In the dialog box that opens, make sure 'colorize' isn't selected, then move the slide bar for saturation all the way to the left. Your image should now be grey scale.
Now find the history brush tool.
Select it and adjust the pen size (with the [ or ] keys) and work over the area you want to restore the colour to. Obviously zoom in and make the brush smaller for the tight areas.
Job done

I've always had this idea that it would be cool one night to sit atop a hill overlooking the snake pass, and watch in awe as a bunch of scoobys growl by, with only headlights and neon blaring out from underneath I've also been in a helicopter filming that at night in another version of that vision
