Exclamation Need a head count of completed UK Installs

OK, there's a possibility of a TV appearance in the UK - ccsnet had spoken to channel 5 last year - they were interested but had finished filming. I am taking on the responsibity to advertise our hobby to them. I need to know how many finished installs we have in the UK - If they were to want a mass turnout, we'd need at least 20 people with tidy finished installs

If you would be interested should this go ahead please post in the following format:

Car: ( model/year )
carpc: ( basic pc spec and unique features )
location: ( north/midlands/south england )
pic: if possible one pic of your dash

I can then database this info and have it to hand for them

Thanks

James

I'd prefer to try and keep it to finished installs - it's no good telling them "er well we have 20 people who *might* have an install"
