Dont waste your money on getting it set up on the rollers.

Get it set up on the road under the conditions that it will actauly be used.

I'd recomend NMS who are opening new premises close to Derby very soon

I'd wait till summer tbh, the charge temps will be more realistic as in you'll prob use it harder in summer and if it was set up around winter with much lower temps you may be getting det come the summer heat

lol sorted for kickwell panels Kris (cheers TF Rallysport ) and also sorted for headrests (cheers Spadge ).

Reese: the kickwell panels are the square-ish shaped bits of trim next to your feet that alot of people cut to fit speakers into...I cut mine (stupid boy that I am, shall cut off my left hand as punishment) to do just that some yrs ago but now ive bought a cage, the door bars foul on the speakers as they run tight against the panels hence the reason for needed replacements.
