Me too the first time I fitted one to Lyndsey's old mk5.....

Had it all to bits and and was looking at it thinking "something aint right here, nothing to connect to the radio".. Quick google later and I was on my way to Halfords  :signLOL:

Right... got the SOT lead.

Managed to test the parrot unit by pushing the red power lead (in the SOT) loom into the power to the radio. Obviously that is not switched, so i need to connect that to a switched live feed!!!  :scared: :scared:

HELP!!

Looks fine to me matey  :happy2:

Before you box it all up after wiring it in, make sure it powers down when you turn the ignition off.. If it doesn't, swap the red->red & orange->orange  so they are red->orange & orange->red  :smiley:
