Well it does indeed sound fantastic now, but when the install was finished the car started and ran for about 30 seconds and then wouldn't react to the starter button at all, dead, nothing, nada. The installer had the thing blasting off the accessories for ages and the battery got a bit drained so maybe that contributing to it. I'm getting all sorts of maybes, key has decoded, bad earth, incorrect wiring, opinions etc. But the shop which is a reputable car sound dealer and has done a lot BA BF falcon upgrades has rechecked all the connections and all seems to be fine. Presently it is sitting in a Ford Dealer waiting to have the codes looked at.

Typical WA WA land, go in to get a 3 hour job done and 2 days later Ford are trying to figure out the problem (they think a key has decoded, yeah sure my mother flie's a jumbo jet too). Just had some stern words with the outlet about not giving me a fcuking bill if Ford put on of their $160 an hour apprentices on it and they can't figure it out. Seems simple to me. Deliver car it goes, install CD player it doesn't go.

They are head scratcing on what to do next. So either the apparent "3 hour CD Player install" 3 days later is not done right, or the computer is fried; which means my new X Cal 3 will be fcuked as well and probably no car for easter. This will be interesting, very interesting, to see who tries to blame who.

The winner is Hiddeous, a plug left out of the BEM. I bet there is an installer getting a slap around the ear in Morley WA today. Still have to give the shop 100% for not trying to on charge me. Now in theory I should have awesome sound and Blue Tooth.
