Title: Central Locking Solenoid & iPod FM transmitter
Post by: Blueview on 19 July 2008, 10:56:24
1 - Solenoid

I'm looking for a replacement central locking solenoid for a 2000 Elite, passenger side.  Old one functions but is basically shot (somebody forced it and it didn't like it). Genuine part is £65 - no thank you, but if anyone has one or know's where I can get a spare for around £20 I'd be appreciative. My breaker searches have turned up very little.

2 - iPod in-car FM transmitter

Can anyone recommend a suitable iPod converter that would suit an Omega's internals . I'd prefer one with a cradle but am conscious that the ashtray would scupper the chances of it sitting rightly.

Had my Omega 5 months now and having previously spent 3 years on the motorway in a 1.2 8v Corsa (no elec windows, no p-steering, no airbags, no power) it almost brings me to tears every time I drive it.  Here's to good mental health, cheers ;)

I have a brand new one here; part number 90493702, think it's for one of the front doors, not sure if all the same, maybe someone else can advise.

Hi, the one I'm looking for is front passenger - current one has 605328 written all over it. If someone can advise that would be brilliant!
