After market radio install 58 plate XTR
#1
Hi guys just after a bit of advice if I may.

I ordered a cheap no frill head unit to get me by until I can afford a fancy touch screen.. issue I am having is I'm not sure what loom to get for the connection at the back of the new head unit, here are a few photos to hopefully help in finding out what loom I need ( at this moment in time I'm not fussed for steering wheel controls )

You need either an ISO plug set (mk2 lingo) or a quad lock set (mk3), and then splice the looms together, as it's a cheap set you won't get a straight plug in wiring loom

Just to add.
The central info display uses the radio head unit to interact with the outside world. I replaced mine with a double din touch screen and then found there was no way of changing the clock and things like that.
In the end I upgraded the speakers and at the same time the audio specialists tried different connectors to the steering wheel controls. They got it working, so now I can set the clock using different combinations of button presses on the steering column controls. Thought I could deal with the clock and other info being constantly wrong but it got me down after a while
