Rob...we need to say sorry to you as we went over to Stu's today with the plan of removing the aerial and leaving with stu, but we totally forgot, sorry mate. So next weekend rain or shine we will get it out and post it to you.

Thanks mate, appreciate the intentions.

You've so much going on, not surprised you forgot.
It'll be great whenever it turns up.
:cheers2:

Just time for a quick update.
I gratefully received the Time Attack spec car aerial from the TNT boys, and although it's great to have the radio back again, I'm a little disappointed to report little improvement in the 0-60 times, so maybe I got the wrong TA bit ;)
Also thanks to some help from the ever helpful Dave J (not forgetting a guest appearance from a mate Steve) I managed to co-erce the power steering on :)
After a few panicked moments seeing differences in alternator mounts, and "will it go", it's all on and it's made a tremendous difference already.
The way the car now reacts is almost like a real car, as opposed to navigating a heavy boat through treacle.
Well chuffed, and having someone of Daves experience on hand meant I had more confidence to crack on. (The four post ramp did nt hurt either!)
Cheers mate I owe you one.

Rob

Glad to hear that the old girl is still putting a smile on your face:D.

Try upgrading the standard speakers as they are fairly w**k, plus i've just had a quick look upstairs and i've got a ford stereo lying around:D.

AL were's the amp.
