i took my time and it took me about a day to do as i wanted it to be right

and then another few days to iron out all the issues i had when one day wasn't enough as the wiring is a bit of a shit and the rear bumper HAS to come off in order to not only run the wiring, but also to make it easier to fit and not faff about removing bits of exhaust to get to the exhaust heat sheilding that you need to remove to get to the bolt holes

Thanks for this, but I'll not be fitting it...never done one and I don't fancy doing one either, best left with an expert I feel from my point of view.
