I just installed a cd/dvd/tv unit as well and I am wanting to hook up a reversing camera. Does anyone know which wire I need to attach the unit to to switch to the camera when I hit reverse?

Cheers

i powered my cam from the reverse lights in the rear door as i mounted mine just under the handle.

cool cheers, I was thinking I might put it there. I can use the reverse light wire at the rear to power the camera. However what about the trigger wire from the head unit? Where abouts is the reverse light wire in the dash? Is it under the centre console? Which color? (I haven't had a look yet, so it may be obvious to me when I take it out next. I just thought someone may be able to save me the trouble)

Thanks again

:P

Can i get some kind of confirmation on the stereo wiring for the S2? Or if anyone knows of a adaptor kit?

I ask as i am lookign at a 2 din hole with two blank connectors, and i know i have 6 speakers (2 pillar tweeters).

Thanks in advance!

just a question for everyone in here who has taken there dash apart a few times, does anyone else have spastic cup holders? what did you do to fix them? mine sort of work but they hang to one side and look funy.

You will only have 4 pairs of speaker wires, the A pillar speakers are "splits" with the front door speakers.

Has anyone put a double din head unit into a C34? Just wondering if there are any issues with it.

I've done it . Absolutely no probs, just follow the DIY. Get a plug to suit from JB, cut and solder.

Thanks to STAGE-A for the wiring

12V ------- Brown with white stripe

Ignition -------- light blue with yellow stripe

Lights -------- Red with blue stripe

Earth -------- Just use the stereo metal brackets

and heres the speaker connection wires (stagea s1 at least)

left front ---- blue (+) black with white stripe (-)

right front ---- brown (+) black with red stripe (-)

left rear ----- mint green (+) black with yellow stripe (-)

right rear ---- orange (+) black with pink stripe (-)

On my S2, i found the RL & RR polarity was reversed to the above stated. and i also had two spare wires :)

installed a new HU on the weekend

bought the Aerpro antenna adaptor, and found i got good reception even without combining both the antenna's

spliced into the black/yellow wire, and it seems radio reception is fine, haven't tested extensively yet

ran the ipod cable into the centre console, and a bluetooth mic into the exmpty switch next to the rear demister

lots of fun to work with. . . not!

Quick question I need clarification on...

Will an S1 Xanavi unit be a direct swap into an S2 with the Factory CD/cas unit?

I believe it will. But why would you want the Xanavi unit anyhow?

just to let everyone know, there is probably an adaptor from aerpro that will plug into the stock harness

i dont know what the part number is but my r32 took the same part as a gq patrol which is about the same age so i would suspect that an adaptor is available to prevent having to cut and solder and also save time

Interesting...so Does the S2 car that has xanavi use the same looms/wires/sockets or whatever for air-conditioning... as one that didn't come stock with the xanavi unit?

No it does not.

One would require something like this: http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e93993162

Ahh bugger. I'll be needing to buy one of them. Could you tell me the name of it so i know what to search for when it comes time.. please. haha

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
