Yeah thats what i thought, sure when i had one done in sextons a couple of years back it was only £40. This bloke is usually cheaper than them. I know its not that hard; i just can't be arsed. Plus i always short something out; just spent an hour tracing a fault with one of my rear lights that i realised was caused by something i did when i fitted my headunit the other day

Nah it was a local bloke in Radstock, had it done at sextons a couple of years back and it wasn't as expensive; but my headunit did blow up on the way home from picking it up
Gonna give it another go 2nite; if not i mite ask for his help

Just use a big drill-bit and make your own hole.
If it's long enough, you'll see where the drill comes through - pref. not through the dash on the other side

Passengers side bulk head, behind the brake servo, there is usually a hole in the bulk head for the wiring loom to go through.......
It's bloody hard to find but will do the job cos you can then run the power cables down the passengers side!
