Hi Anyone able to offer guidance to the Autocom dealer (motor bike dealer) who are going to fit an Autocom system to my car. They have never fitted one before in a 7 and say "I'm sure it won't be a problem" However............. I said that I would place this posting and ask you lot for advice - i.e best place to pick-up power feed, positioning of amp, what to look out for and what to avoid etc, etc Thanks in anticipation Freestyle 2.3 Duratec....P2YKE

Hi Graeme - best let it/them go to a lesser bodied chap - thanks for getting back to me though!

Hi Graeme - sorry about the delay in getting back to you - I am 5'8" x 42" chest x 38" waist ie short fat and hairy ❗ - will it fit?? I looked at the Demon Tweeks sizing and 56 is the closest to my freaky shape - (albeit appealing to the opposite sex ❗)
