I live and breath technical drawings in my day job. I really miss not having a full data pack on my car. Nice one, and where's the rest..... 😉

I will be looking at a Vortex wreck today. Unsure of its build date, will let you know what I find. PM me your phone number and I'll send you pic of the unit. If it checks out I'll buy it for you.
