Nice mate, Exactly the same as my old one (before you done the changes) i loved it but had to change to get aircon for dog, my new one is still nice but desperately need to get the rear spoiler on and new wheels, even if i can just get same alloys as on my last one (same as you originally started with) it would look a lot better.

I'm living in Great Yarmouth now mate.

I wouldn't bother with a set of standard 15s. 17s are always going to look better and are normally around the same price. I picked my new alloys up pretty cheap just keep an eye on Gumtree and Ebay. Because you done already have a spoiler it means you could get a really cool one! Like the linea race spoiler!

I used to holiday down there with the rents way back when. Nice place. Too southern for my tastes though :p

Yeah I thought that at first but it's a block of wires and you just clip the block in. Then there's a few others to clip in but it's dead easy to work out as they will either only go in one slot, one way or they have a label on them. Really easy, it took me like 20 mins. The reversing cam took longer but that was getting a cable from the front to the back.

Came trough this morning, cant wait to fit it but i'm at a loss lol

big block of cables connect, i get that part, but i cant figure out what connects where.

what is a can Bus Decoder?

Hey man, welcome.

To fit it is very easy, simply take out one and clip new one in.
I haven't tried to get the TV thing to work as I think you need something extra to get it to work and tbh I've got no need for the TV to work.
And the Bluetooth works well imo. For calls and for playing music through without having to plug in your device.
Hope this helps.

so mate, if i just clip on out then one in do i not need to use a lot of these cables?

i dont need to set up reverse cam or tv.
 
Hey man, all my cables that I connected did have a sticker on them saying what there were. Allthough I'm almost certain that the cables will only go in the correct slots. Have you got your old one out yet? And I have cables left over so don't think you need them all. Youll have a mic for the bluetooth which you'll need to wire in somewhere and same as the gps cable. A USB cable that I took down into the little tray in front of the gear stick. If your not doing the reverse cam then you don't need that one.

Alreet mate

Managed to wire all in, not as hard as I though although I struggled to get black block from my old one.

I have a major problem now though, it's not turning on :-(
 
Did you get two blocks of cables? If so try the other one, cause I got 2 and I don't think the first one worked for me.
 
Ryan13 said:
Yeah you need to plug that in.

Yesss cheers mate, i now have power :bang::D

Just need to now, fully fit it in the unit cos it only gets 3 quarters of the way in at the moment.

Also just had a play with Navigation, is there a way you can:
Set home
find a place using postcode
 
Yeah it's tight to get it all in so have fun with that haha. As for the sat nav I'm not sure on setting home but you can enter postcodes on either street name or town. And you do have to put a space in the postcode. If that makes sense.

I've got it in but it's not flush, I now can't get it out to try again hahaha

Bane of my life this lol
 
I can't believe your having that much trouble with it pal. It took me no time at all. It is hard to get it flush I had to take it out about 3 times after taking it out to install a reverse cam.

I'm.thinking my gap might be a tad smaller due to the climate control section
 
Maybe, you could try taking the glove box off and pulling the cables through the back. I'm not saying this would work but it has on my previous car.
