Frayz has fitted a few, and he did a great write-up.

he fitted mine , done an awsome factory fit job mate, check out his his prodrive project theres a full install guide, but i still didnt fancy it myself so i just let him do it and it was worth every penny IMO.

We are not that deep into Wales here 7 bridge area.
If our man Merv will fit it no problem using my gaff for the installation.

I'll quite happily lend a hand if you fancy a trip up the M5 and along the M4 a bit
the journey back will be ventilated for sure
