While @ it clean/wash the heater/aircon ducts and remove that dust, so next summer you know you have some fresh air.

Speaking of fresh air, saw a sticker the other day on a X5 - "Daddy farted and we can't get out!" :laugh2:

Relax Antony, I have never even SAT inside a Vigo, let alone driven or worked on one... So I do not talk from experience regarding your van. But I recall much sweating and swearing when I had to simply refit the little digital clock on my KZ - they have crummy snapfits to hold them in position and if you push the buttons too hard it falls into the dash, meaning you have to do a bit of stripping in order to simply get to it and clip it back in position. It is tricky to put a dash back together again without it having squeeks and rattles...
That looks like just a centre console though, so you should be a-OK. :thumbup:

'n Pioneer Multimedia Satnav.

Alles is mos digital en die OEM radio kan net CD's speel. Ek het 'n behoefde vir USB of 3.5mm aux jack. Tweedens ek is moeg vir my GPS se drade wat orals rond hang. Ek sal pics laai sodra ek klaar is maar ek is soos stout seuntjie vanoggend.

Ok, ek is klaar, hiermee gee ek my 5cw:

1. Los dit vir die Pro's.
2. Moenie net aaneem die %[&#* swart draad is earth en die rooie is 12v. NIE met die Vigo's nie.
3. Double DIN beteken nie altyd "one size fit all" nie. Lengte geen probleem, mr breete is dar so 10mm aan elke kant oop. Ek dink ek sal 'n facia plate kan kry vir dit iewers by die Montana traders.
4. Moet definatief nie die "rear view" camera eers probeer kopel nie(het nie vloek woorde ondek)
5. Lees die manual, wat jy geweet het 10jaar terug is nie meer noodwendig van toepasing nie.
6. Kry omtrent 25 x extra "fuses".
7. Stuur die vrou en kinders weg sou jy nie punt 1 wil gehoorsaam nie.
8. Verwwys terug na punt 1 tot 7.

Op 'n meer positiewe noot, dis alles die moeite werd. Die klank is soveel beter as die OEM radio. Die GPS werk goed, ek het die Rear view camera maar gaan daai een los vir 'n bad job, maar dink dit kan bie handig wees. Die blue tooth is seker die beste van alles, kan mp3 speel deur my cell sonder enige drade en goed wat rond hang.

My volgende bakkie sal ek definatief so iets doen maar fitment doen deur die Pro's.

Hi

Hier is die bedrading soos my Hilux 2007 se bedrading is:
Ground - Bruin
12v Battery - Blou met geel streep
12v ignition - Grys

Die rooi, geel en swart (wat mens sou dink is die ground, ignition en 12V) is eindlik die speaker se drade.

Snaaks genoeg dis die kleure van my 98 Conquest ook.

Regarding Tracks 4 Africa, no it only show South Africa. But I'm sure the memory card can be updated after purchasing T4A.

Ok, I have manged to get a set of "trim plates", that's what its called BTW, for R120. It look soooo much better without the gapping holes on the side.

Just for interest sake, now I know why one would want to play DVD's in a car, the sound quality of a DVD is by far more superior thn any mp3 or normal audio CD, the stereo effect etc etc.

Lastly, I found out that its NOT a Pioneer unit, the little emblem is just stuck on. I believe its one of those http://www.stopshop.co.za" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; units.

Now I just need to get the rearview camera installed
