JamesC Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 It's says in the database HERE that you need a PC9-411 but that might be for the UK, although its the same one as the Import MR2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 It's says in the database HERE that you need a PC9-411 but that might be for the UK, although its the same one as the Import MR2. There are two plugs coming from the car though and it looks like the PC9-411 only has the one? Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 Apparently I need to follow the lead down a bit more towards the gearbox and it detaches there? From there I can fit the PC2-17-4 and everything will work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesC Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Looks like there is only one. There's a pic in here: http://www.armourauto.com/downloads/09cat/02-Autoleads-VehicleDB_2009_lowRes.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snuffkins Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 the cable you disconnected from the stereo has to be disconnected from another unit further back and down the side of the tunnel just follow it, disconnect it and plug your new one into that box down the side. So the cable you bought completely replaces that one. Hope that made sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraGirlie Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 I give up. I guess I'll have to pay someone to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Post up a pic of the mess of wires and someone will telll you where to connect it to. Assuming your wiring harness hasn't already been modded it should be a peice of cake to fit the adaptor harness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 Aahh the console is back together again now!! I'll try and do it tomorrow! Anyone local fancy helping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the cable you bought completely replaces that one. Hope that made sense. How can this work, the adapter I have isn't long enough to be able to connect to something right down toward the drivers footwell and come back up to plug in to my stereo?! Or am I confused!
