    Fitting a Double Dinn GPS/DVD into dash

    Can some one tell me where the cables from the steering wheel controls are found( at the back of the radio) before I pull out the radio again to complete the last few wires. Hippo - Looking good.....! Also found an annoying feature of the Xtrons unit . When you switch to GPS from the musci...

    The unit came with an ISO connector which worked fine for the standard connections. Steering controls, illumination and unit extras require manual wiring or standard phono plugs. :cool:

    It does sound a little basey at times but with some fine tuning it sounds good. Compared to my previous Freebie ('S' reg my current one sounds a lot better) :)

    Know how you feel ;) Just to confirm the HK system works spot on with my unit. You just need to configure the sound in the music playback menu.

    I can almost taste the Freddo :p:p:p Thanks for the info on the steering wheel controls. Are the cables in radio snap connector C ? If not where can I find them? Just to confirm that the DVD Handbrake wire should be connected to earth to allow it to work without hand brake...

    Fitting a Double Dinn GPS/DVD into dash

    I have just bought a double din unit and am in the process of fitting it. The wiring loom fits fine but does anyone know what the wires are in socket C? I also need to find a signal wire for the hand break (which I assume is easy enough) and also a feed for the accelerator. Will add photos of...
