Well, the screen in the install example is a Lilliput(ish) type screen that isn't fully integrated, it looks like it is just bolted into the lower console, very obvious and very nonstandard.

The System install looks like it is just screwed to the underside of a strengthened parcel shelf.

I agree wiring up can be a nightmare, but if I was going to pay about £4500, and £3200 of that would be isntalation, I'm sorry, but I would expect it to look like the screen was fitted at the factory (and that is at retail prices not trade bulk prices). If they are buying in a retail prices then they aren't big time, and never plan to be, and if they are getting stuff at bulk prices, they are using the barnum approach, and hoping that a big posh motorcar clouds people judgement and persective about what things cost.

Maybe I should go into this market myself. Lots of overpaid footballer with silly capacity cars and wallets in my neck of the woods. All I would need would be a logo'd van, a flashy website, and a couple of trade stock accounts.
