i like it, but i can't have anything going through the floor on my car all the cables need to be above...
will bear it in mind for a future upgrade perhaps if he's got another model to suit.

half of the point of this bit of market research is too see what peoples requirements are...i cant use a floor mounted one, so if people need one similar to the mark 2 escort type then i can design it with him......
