Standard Ed30 head unit.......

<< < (5/5)

pudding:
You need to connect the loom to the back of the radio.  When you want tunes from your phone, simply flip up the ‘aux’ cover and plug 3.5mm stereo lead in. Then select aux on the radio, job done!

JamesP:
Right, bought the head unit and cable.......
soooo easiest way to get the cable from the head unit to the blank socket?

JamesP:
Select aux via the “media” button?
Sorry if I sound a simpleton!

pudding:
Yep, via the Media button chap  :happy2:  It remembers it as well, so you don't have to keep switching from source to source every time you start the car  :smiley:

When you take the old radio out, also remove the gear stick panel with the switches and blanks, you will then see the best way to route the harness  :happy2:

Oh and be very very gentle when prying the stereo trim/HVAC panel off the dash, the clips break off super easy.  If you do break the panel, it's not expensive to replace.
