jackso11 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 had the seats, carpet and dash out at the weekend to give the interior a proper clean. Previous owner a smoker and I am not so there was plenty of ash under the centre console and carpet, Japanese money, Japanese parking ticket, bits of twigs, loads of BB bullets! Anyway, thought I would tidy up the wiring, remove the original oem amp loom and central locking unit and any other wires that were redundant. I found a wire and I don't know what it is. I followed it down the drivers side of the car, up behind the speaker, along the roof and into the boot hatch? Behind the speaker it becomes a plug and the rest of the wire from the boot hatch plugs into it there. It starts behind the stereo, looks like a small version of an aerial plug on the end but there is nowhere to plug it in. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Blyth Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Grey wire? Sounds like the second aerial, built into the rear screen. I'm not sure why it's there. Aftermarket head units don't need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 yeah, grey wire. So its a second aerial. Does it work well? has anyone tried it instead of the standard one? or does it work for anything else? like TV headunits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I think it's an AM aerial, just forget you found it (but if you look at the rear windscreen heating element you should see a bit at the bottom that's not connected to the rest, that's the aerial) I think it attaches to the part I've taken a photo of in the attachment.
