Sold it to twiglet, there will be bits available soon no doubt!!
Trouble strikes in series of three's, but when working on the car, the next job after a series of three is not the fourth job -- it's the start of a brand new series of three

Fitted a patch lead so the steering wheel controls work with the sony head unit.

Lazy tinker aint I?  :D

QuoteThink the stereo looks chavvy, and I reckon too low to be useful in Omega. But each to their own

Screen height not a major issue imho :-\ The idea is not to watch it while you're driving :-X

Now a HUD projected onto the windscreen.... Ronin would never be the same again 8)

I was in Ukraine to fill up my tank and my iron got  a really big and deep pothole that was so huge and I run enough fast to have no time to get react. The result was tragic, the top of the left rear absorber broke into the boot...Fortunately I found a very smart mechanic's garage near to the place of event and I got it repaired at once for quite a correct price! My miggy was done two hours later and my scaryness was larger than the real damage... Phew...:y :y :y

Presumably the stereo is square (well, oblong), and you have a surround piece around it?

Today i finished off fitting the trip computer to the Omega. Drooped in some new spark plugs as well.
On the Vectra i completed the cruise control set-up and decided to change the air filter. Here is the old air filter:



It had been left in a pub car park abandoned for 6 months but still  :-\
