You're right, they are left over, but not from this job

You can also buy round fitment with HDMI conversion. HERE...

They all plug into the rear USB input on the RunGrace unit, you can also use the red/white audio RCA's.
Thanks Wes, Those ones you've listed would need a whacking big hole cutting into the insert behind the walnut panel and wouldn't leave much in place.

Anyway, I like paying with a Dremel and a hot glue gun.

Nope, the pictures are deceiving.

The rectangle version only measures 30mm x 17mm.

The round version has a diameter of just 30mm.

The head unit seems to have been deleted from the site now. Congrats to anyone who managed to get one at a good price!

I see it went of out stock some weeks ago, it never went below £150 for a while, and I've only seen the WinCE version hand around the £80 price point. I've checked many wholesale sites and have not seen anything worth mentioning, we may never see another repeat of this...

It was fun and a real eye opener.

Thanks Chris, these are the slim 6cm depth GPS units, seems a good price, just watch-out for the Shipping cost as I cant see any free P&P advertised.
Picture also shows 1x SD card slot, cant see the GPS map slot, seems same as the 6010B non GPS model. Might be worth messaging them before placing order incase of wrong spec/price advertised.
