Getaway :D :D :D only joking mate, how the hell are you anyway :?: still happy with the SP1 :?: no regrets changing from the storm I take it :!: At least you have no worries of CCTs letting go, with your gear driven set up.
Its good to see you dropping in from time to time Jacey. I bet there's one thing SP1 owner's have not got that Firestorm owner's have and that's this fully alive site here (BIG thank's to FirestormAl) no doubt you'll tell me if i'm wrong, anyway look after youself mate, :wink:
keep the black stuff down,

Funny you should mention that, I have had the exact same thing with my insurance. When I rang them up to question that (Carole Nash ins. brokers) they said the company I had my insurance with had no problem with my mod's so therefore no need to list them! They said they had made a note of it in my record's at their end! But like you i'd have preferred it in black and white on my ins. details! What more can you do than tell them!
I did record the message when I rang up the second time :!:

Getting it in writing sounds like a better idea :!:
