Anyone else interested, finally got it in and working OK, after all the faffing about it was the area that was the prob, drove to my daughters (about 1/2 mile) and thought i'd try it and it loaded all channels no problem, signal gradually got worse as i drove home tho, getting a great pic even at 50 - 60 mph depending on location, apart from that all went well, i did have to cut the surround so it'd fit through (how'd you get away without doing that Jim?),
and space the double din brackets forward about 10mm so the front would drop down without fouling the surround,
main alteration tho was the difference in plugs, the f/v box has normal coax and the head has 3.5 jacks, and useing the adaptor i got from maplins the head would'nt go back in far enough without buggering the jack and adaptor up, (bending it), so i got a 3.5 right angled mono jack plug from maplins and fits fine,
i've added to the lower dash as ya can see so it all fit's in there nicely, ment moveing the ECT switch, the whole thing is easly unscrewed if i have to get at owt tho,
