    Link works fine and the guide is well written with good detailed pictures.  Will try it out when I fit mine.

     

    Good work and the install looks spot on.

    The "how to" guide is first class and informative,but it took me over five minutes to download all of it on 8Mb broadband because of the large PDF file size,which some impatient people might get bored waiting for.How about making it an HTML document that would only take seconds to download?

    not a problem Chris, i'll do that later.

     

    quite impressed with the pics myself, considering they were only from my (lame excuse for a) phone

     

    I'll sav the *.doc as a html tonight then

     

    good idea

    probs be best if i compressed the images a bit. they are there probs just takin time to load

     

    (the file is hosted locally on my machine, and me being on a 1meg connection only means u get slow downloads as my uplad speed is shoot)

     

    if i re did it and made images smaller itd make it load much faster

    It just needs ste.myvnc.com replacing with ste.gotdns.com on any links to this :)

     

    EDIT: Just seen that "edit" button, that was hiding from me a moment ago, so edited the post myself.
