Thing is... If you are going to route a TM loom then you have to have the HU cage out, if you are doing that it seems sensible to me to run the CK wiring out to the left straight of the ISO (except mute as after TM). At least you won't be hacking the original Telematics wiring.

So in theory I agree with LD!!!

That was my thinking too... Surely all the connections I need are present in the 36 way TM loom... Must be easier to pick them off before threading it in  :-/

Yep, except mute has to come from the car loom side of the TM as the TM mute is over-ridden by CK mute when using the CK.

I think I'll revisit this on Sunday (busy tomorrow!) when I'm not so tired and incohol fuzzled ::)

If I understand correctly, the mute has to come from the car end of the loom, not the HU end?

Getting there slowly :-X :-[ ::)

All I need now are the pin numbers and/or wire colours I need to use ::)

See, as much as I hate butchering built in looms, I would in this case pick off what I could from the telematics loom.

The way I see it, if I'm feeding wires across from the TM loom anyway (and the TM loom as well) I may as well do it all together ;)

Your choice, but its already tight behind/around stereo, without trying to force more in ;)

Right... Going to build the loom up in the next few days so any chance of wire colours to check please?

Also, can you please confirm that I can just put the audio feed directly into the HU (being Bose equipped) or does it need anything in between? Oh... And explain what pins 35 and 36 actually mean as I'm being thick :-[ :-[

Finally... What colour/pin is the mute wire?

Thanks :y

IIRC pins are numbered on the ISO

Also, as I don't have enough bits of old loom kicking about any more, what grade wire do I need to build this loom up? Is it readily available at Craplins?

Yeah, but I want to have it built before I go see him so I can feed it all through whilst we've got my stereo out to test his ;) He can help me feed it all through as payment for using my car as a test bed ;D

Hopefully it wont come to that. Jammy was right, you do worry too much. :D ;D ;D
I could possibly post some wires to you if need be. ;)
Mute wire is black btw ;)
