Great stuff Keith. I saw it on facebook earlier and did a little 'woop woop' in work (which i then had to
rather embarrassingly explain to my colleagues)

Took a spin up to Stormant with a mate today and took some pics to pretty much end this thread seeing as he's now complete.
I set up my components up front in pods with tweeters on the dash rail in the corners and hooked them up to the Amp under the seat out of view. Then I connected my iPhone to the amp with a cable. All works great but I'm gonna need a volume control knob so I've ordered one of those as I'm unable to control the volume with the iPhone once connected. Sweet extra is it charges the phone too.

So I've been looking at indoor covers online and really like the fitted Mini covers but yikes there expensive. So while wandering around TKMAXX of all places I picked up a large cover for £15.00. So yes I could fit 2 minis under it but I have a plan. Image I started by turning it inside out and pinning it to fit my mini. Trimming off the excess from the front and back and next thing to do is run it thru a seeing machine and hey presto a fitted cover! Image Image
