Hi Jake and welcome back. I met up with Lewis yesterday at the Halfway House meeting and he suggested we all meet up your end if it is convenient for you? I am still on the look out for the BMW Nav drive you suggested. I see you have sold your Sat Nav. The buyer had a great deal. I can always sell on the unit I bought from Lewis and keep the original symphony if the kit you suggested comes up. Have a good rest and catch up soon
