I got it disconnected other side already figured it was some sort of latch that pic has clarified it thanks mate reckon a slim electrical screw driver both sides should release it like doing stereo. Thanks bud 👍

Speaker wire routes.
Right little update ive got the trim pieces removed and im at the speaker wire connections so I need the wires on the middle plug to connect to but cannot for the life of me get this plug to unplug, is there some sort of catch or something so I can release this plug as I dont want to force anything and I have very little spare wire to play with on these.

Speaker wire routes.
Ok so started messing around with speakers and such to get a better sound quality going. Ive soft wired everything up now and must admit the sound quality in my furbie sounds awesome now so to the question. Ive used the wires from the rear door tweeters which are totally useless to add another set of speakers onto my real parcel shelf old school style lol I need to hide the wires now and was wondering once I pull the tweeter wires back through the rear door bellows do the rear speaker wires then run under the trim in the cockpit if so then I can do the same with these new wires to get them to the same place as the other rear speaker wires are ???

Aerial cable.
I know what your saying but the average price was only 6 or 7 quid its not really much to it I've not even seen anything priced more than that to indicate better quality.

Aerial cable.
I got the amp from the link which was posted earlier and I agree I cant see how the cable is damaged in all honesty. Im not sure how to really check the amp when I plug it into the back of both stereo,s there is a change in static so its trying to do something but still no proper reception. I will try the other aerial I have tomorrow and see if that helps out in any way first

Aerial cable.
I do have a sharkfin guess might be worth while loose connecting that up see if it is the aerial base if that yields no better results then guess its the main aerial cable gone poof.

Aerial cable.
I just tried this way today and also tried using my other stereo as well but still same results 😞

Aerial cable.
Nice video I'm concerned now that the actual aerial cable does need replacing and one main job I have left to do is to retrieve my head lining so I think these 2 jobs eill be done at the same time once it's a bit warmer.
-
Aerial cable.
That's what I did I tested the wire its a switched live blue and the only wire left coming out the back of the stereo.

Aerial cable.
I connected it to the blue wire coming out from the back if the stereo its weird as could here the static had died down but no reception still.
