I have a bit of kit to fit on my miggy, there are 3 wiring diagrams, Two positive ground and one negative ground, could any of you guys advise on which system it is on a 2003 CDX omega, i think i am right in saying its positive as i thought uk cars were and only some of the foriegn makes were negative,

Omega is Negative ground, as is virtually everything you see on the roads nowadays.

However, I must ask what on earth you are fitting, as virtually nothing these days gives positive earth as an option ? Either archaic, or really cheesy chinese product?

(BTW, positive earth was popular on some VERY(!) old classic cars)
