Cheers Auto Addict I think I have possibly the wrong rear window great  . Would a facelift and pre facelift be the same type rear window.

Silly :question but thought I would ask

I take it you have glass cover with your car insurance?

It would be a terrible shame if you came out in the morning and your rear screen was mysteriously smashed, AutoGlass would have to come out and fit a new one, with the gap for the brake light of course. Get me?  

I know somone who had this happen.

I've taken stacks of pictures, external, internal and all display/config combinations etc., all for my site at OmegaProject.co.uk

However, due to my current host being utter crap, i have hung off progressing the site until i migrate to a new provider, hopefully sometime this week or next.

I'll keep you posted when it's available.

Can the colour displays be fitted to all omegas provided they have the right audio equipment?

It would require the correct loom as well as the correct head unit. There are two multiplugs going into the back of the color display, not one.

Easy to check though by removing the instrument cluster to check for said spare connector. The 2013 and 2015 have a different setup though, BC functions are not controlled by buttons on the wiper stalk for example.

I like it in there but i think a standard omega one looks tidier do u agree ?

Yep, I prefer my standard NCDC2013, looks even better after i upgraded it to the color display though.  8-)

Have you actually tried changing the fuse? I've seen this before, caused by bad spade connections. Get a new fuse and pop it in.

Also get the meter onto both sides of the fuse, make sure your power is ok there.

I'd be very surprised if all these faults were a coincidence.

I was under the impression it was built into the radio/ phone antenna on the roof, didnt realise there was a seperate antenna

The antenna is on the roof on facelift models with the Siemens/Navteq system, but on pre-facelift models with the Philips Carin system, like the one i've fitted to Jims, the antenna is seperate.  

I thought you said you had to get back to work, going by the time your reply was left you must have gone straight tothe computer

It's Friday, so i'm working as hard as you would on a normal weekday. Basically arsing about on the PC.  

Besides, you're supposed to be polishing that car.  8-)

Just a question but how did you get over the GPS antenna bit??  :question

How do you mean?

There was an antenna supplied, which sits on the back parcel shelf, or on the dash.

Looked exactly like the GPS antenna on my Origin B2.
