Ive gotta think about taking mine to a garage to fit my ariel. Ive bought 2 and no way can i get them to fit. its got no broken bits in the motor housing, its just the masts you buy just seem not to fit the shaft thats in the wheel arch...i've bent the 2 i bought, and thats with changing the motor assy too.. i cant go on with no radio anymore

got an areil off scrapper but mk111 like mine but preoviou owner had cut wire block off ,there three wires, black earth, blue to radio, and red permant live so black to earth but the blue and red i wish i new where to solider in to the areil block as it has lots off tags so still stumped

net to boot release is a key lock if it lock position you wont get in your boot,if keys in the ignition the boot wont open , try eBay usa for key fobs

The beeps when you set the alarm, I'll have to check that. Have you RT :tsktsk: M yet?

make the car alarm either beep or silent

cant see how it could fail ???? the tester giving you bull i think should of ask him to explain ,mines on lpg il have to wait to mot it lol

yes all works well no probelms at ,,,this is paper work i gave him ,,weather he did it this way or not ,i would not no as i made his tea,not knowing enough about ice ,is why i got him in to fit it ,all work as it should amp areil as normal.The above info on wireing was off another site, out my league totally to many wires when i looked but bloke was blinding as no amp bypass,my point being is you dont have to do an amp by pass and at 70 bargin i think

Today i had ,,,a firm called Enhance Tel: 01795 510767 Car Audio & Security Car...MAIDSTONE/ SITTINGBOURNE fit my after market double din fully loaded gps tv dvd radio, reverse camera ect,to my mk 3 1996, after reading so much about by passing the amp , i came across this on

you will have to do a factory amp intergration wich means using the factory amp. you will have to reinstall the factory amp as it was. then the rest is done from the factory head unit harness. take the factory wire and connect them as so.

batt- blue/yellow

ignition - gray

ground - brown

power antenna - black/red

amp turn on - pink/blue

front left+ black

front left- white

front right+ white

front right- red

rear left+ red

rear left- green

rear right+ yellow

rear right- green

and this will use the factory amp and keep the speakers crossed over and keep your sub running as its supposed to.I gave this to the man at the above company and he wired it in no loss of amp job well done. two hours and 70 pound later so happy .i dont do in car entertainment.The above info might be usefull for you s who can.

Right I'm a little confused on this. What people mean is that you normally lose the factory amp as the connector for it does not conect to anything on an aftermarket unit. There is two plugs one with the speakers and lines to the back of the car and the other with the power and earths etc.

Looking at your connections you haven't reconected the button illumination lines for the buttons on the centre dash, So can you tell me if they all light up in the night and also your lcd clock etc lights up as they are not listed above.

Also does your aerial always come up when the car is on or when you just active the stereo unit power button?

Let me know more information please.

hi i have mk 3 1996 the egr pipe is there only 1 or 2 pipes ??? and do any one have correct part number please ? slowly getting through the list of jobs to do

Hi

I will swear there was another reply to this topic earlier today or maybe I imagined it

Anyway, you might find the following links useful. After reading them, I concluded that cleaning the EGR was the 1st step, failing which replacement. What was interesting was that all the manufacturers have EGR problems -
