The above is just this but embedded. http://www.octavia-vrs.com/images/images/mfd2/stream_mp3_pinouts.jpg

All it is showing is the pinouts from the back of a VAG head unit.

Use this link and go to the bottom of the page, thats where the pictures are. http://www.octavia-vrs.com/technical/mfd2.html

heres a hint.. get a AA battery and tape wires on the end of the batterys.. then connect them to the pairs of speakers you want and the speakers taht you connect to will make a buzzing noise  :happy2:

Also if you have VCDS on an OEM headunit you can 'drive' the speakers individually.
