Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: HID Bulb recommendations

The one that melted looks like it was due to arching.....I wonder if water might have got into the connector by some means.

Yeah I was just re-looking at that, in which case the brand may not necessarily to blame. Well I'll just dive in with the cheapies and see what is what

I will be going with the cheapies too - the Vx one's haven't failed or anything but could do with a good spare or two just in case.
Have asked on the other thread what brand the melting one was

PM sent   only joking!

Can see from one side you can't give sensitive info out on a forum, and from another that others received the secret to everlasting life and love while he did not.

Surely this is all a misunderstanding technically?

We've got both a 2003 and 2004 Omega with Kenwood 7537 and 9537 hu's in them respectively, both using an autoleads "PC99-X06-DIS" adapter which we got from www.justkenwood.co.uk.
Steering controls and display are working perfectly on both.

That's fantastic, thank you!

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Connects 2 boxes

« on: 08 November 2007, 13:15:40 »

Hi Guys I've been looking at the Connects 2 boxes - I have a 2000 Omega MV6 with the CCR2006.
I was wanting to fit a Kenwood HU which I am lifting out of my 620ti.

Browsing the website for the Connects 2 boxes for the Omega (I guess I am looking at Stalk + Display adaptors) - the choice for Kenwoods is for Single-din/early models only, and all other items are for Sony HU's.

Does anyone know if the adaptors for the newer HU's (listed for Sony only) will work/can be made to work with newer Kenwoods please?

If I can't get the tinker working I'll have to beat someone to death with it or something! I have had Sony headunits for many years and I cannot take any more!

Cheers again
Alex

Thanks Lizzie, puts that one to bed - the sports cats are my particular area of interest thankfully. De-catted my old R620ti and had it sail an MOT. I am sure the results were fabricated in honesty

Omega General Help / Sports cat/de-cat?

« on: 25 September 2008, 00:10:54 »

Hi guys probably been done a hundred times but couldn't turn anything up on the search.

Anyone had sports cats or de-catted their Omega? I am thinking of the x30xe's in particular but any comments welcome.

Just wondering if there are any real gains, differences or problems with the idea? I'm guessing that de-cats won't pass an MOT.

I'm going to have my exhaust fiddled with anyway and wondering if I could tie them in on a deal


Cheers for reading
