tooSavvy Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 If I can find a business with a large enough plate glass window I may take a phottie (with a double image) and 'mock in' the BTCC saloon.

A pen of 'smudge-up' required.... Cannot find the toyyo paint/code equivalent in Halfrauds I seem to see a Rover colour, looking at the tin tops, which might do it.

dean36014 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Fitted one of those to my zx to replace the useless factory fitted system. Wiring instructions were a bit dodgy, you have to earth a few wires that wasn't clear on my instructions. they work great though, car is at the end of the garden and they work from my lounge at front of the house. tooSavvy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to be on a 'variation' of frq - you need to have the box learn your plip - so although 'universally on sale' >> you are unlikely to lock/unlock half a dozen cars [with them fitted] in Tesco carpark on a Saturday... lolzz TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooSavvy Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 I have tried to use the Cassette Player Adapter, bought the other day, but I still have no idea why the 'tape head' is off/no sound . I snagged a loom Plug Adapter, for Toyyo loom (£3.99 delivered) and will solder up the rats nest hanging out of my 'been on the shelf forever...' AIWA. AIWA CT-R430MYZ .... just need to crack [sic] off the fascia here.... .... and slot it in. It has the 3.5 Jack, for 'AUX' input, on the detachable faceplate & my Player-on-a-Stick plays a thumbstick... No Problem TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooSavvy Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Whilst I'm at it... I need a +12v/Earth for the 'PlipLock' module so, while soldering my AIWA tails into the radio loom plug, I will add a red + black tail - about 2ft long - to get me a connection above the pedals & no need to hack into the loom under the steering wheel TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooSavvy Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 The 'Loom adapter' dropped thru the letter box yesterday...... Needless to say, I chopped the ends off....... .. just have to solder the AIWA tails [correctly, to diag] and have some dry & daylight....

tooSavvy Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Soldering didn't go too well..... The tips all silvered but I could not get them to fuse to each other... Very Odd Trusty 'Choccy blok' connectors to the rescue... Weyy aye!! 4 screws and fascia off... 4 screws in bracket supports HU [removed]... Toyyo HU is 'inside' the DIN Hole >> AIWA has a collar so is 'outside'/slid through the DIN Hole.Holes in Toyyo bracket lined up, at the rear, so all is tight as a drum in there Fed the +12v/Earth tails through the dash and they are coiled loosely, just down by the clutch pedal.
