    Have a look at www.proclip.com They have holders for nearly everything. A little pricey but you get what you pay for.

    I got it all working. Required connecting a feed directly from the lower battery (the one with the negative pole earthed to the chassis) to the always-on 12v+ on the head unit. The switched 12v+...

    My GQ's loom doesn't supply an earth wire to the head unit at all - it's earthed via the Nissan mounting rails directly to the chassis. I could be wrong but I'd suspect that it is earthed pretty...

    My GQ had a savage vibration at about the same speed - felt really bad. Turned out to be a totally munted suspension bush from one of the panhard rods which couldn't be seen until it was removed.
