So my mind is Blown. If this was any other car I'd call insurance and take the Write Off payout. But that can't happen.

So Monday a call to Patrol A Part to look for a full Cabin Loom. Sent them...

After few days using it, I decided that it was too far out of the dash for my liking. I'd prefer it to be more flush. Took it off, redrilled the brackets to make it sit further into the dash. I have...

Great news to see you are out again and feeling better mate

I reckon the USB is a good idea. I have a one up top close to the screen so I can have a dash-cam up behind the mirror without dangling leads.

Looks nice mate. Good job.
