    Thanks, I have a similar radio unit and find the radio quality very frustrating. I'm thinking of getting the one that supports DAB as well as FM.

    Looking like you have a active antenna, the tube looking thing on your antenna cable is a bias tee, used to feed 12 Volt to your antenna, important that the cable on that thing is connected to 12 volt

    2:25 On that particular supplied harness there is a wire labelled 'Auto Ant' and/or 'Amp' on the harness ...I believe that'll give you your switched live as well...nice upload tho

    Hi I tried connecting the red wire from the amplifier to the stereo on the wire loom like you did and I found that my battery went flat in a few hrs do you have any ideas if there is another way to do this thanks.

    • @MisterManj
      @MisterManj Před 2 lety +2

      That's why he said switched 12v wire meaning when you switch the radio off there should be no power... So find the switched 12v use a multimeter to determine which one is switched....

      It's improved the signal when I'm in one location but when driving it doesn't give a crisp signal all the time when it's weak signal but for the price paid for it and how easy it was to fit I can't complain
