Good response then haha, hornets nest with these. People always rate what they have right now, sometimes out of loyalty to a regular supplier or workshop/tuning specialist, so muddies the waters.

Much reading results in a remarkable favouring of the GP one when used with the diverter and hood trim/s

I bought a GTT one, just to test, but I don't like the altered look under the bonnet really. It wasn't the best reviewed, but one of the least slated products haha. It's hard to get proof of what works, as on the various sellers websites you can't really trust the info/data, it needs to be truly independent testing, ideally with each stage of mod.

Second hand isn't a great idea really, things only get sold on for a reason right? The only ones worth getting are replacement standard ones from other peoples conversions. If you see others, you have to be cautious. Having said that mine will be up soon and it's a couple of months old, maybe people will think it's no good lol.

I definitely don't like the idea of ditching air con to have a front mount.
