pre wired for Bluetooth?

Post by Benarchard » Sat Sep 27, 2014 1:13 pm

So I have all the buttons on steering wheel and a mic in roof. However nothing in the arm rest when I took it apart. Also I looked for loom and connectors in the boot. I found what I think is Bluetooth antenna plug purple and black. I also found a small white 2/4 pin connector and a blue connector behind cd changer but I am still not sure if these are all I need to plug and play... Any suggestions??

Look for silver box on the left rear poking up through floor (behind CD cover)
It is set at an angle, and only a small portion poking through.

Of its there then you have it, if not then you may be able to retro fit

Search for ULF on here, there is a picture of it which makes more sense!!
If things were meant to be easy, then I will soon complicate them....

But then I could be talking bollox.. O:-)
