[c4sh]

Hi guys just purchased a shark fin (eBay item 190771122873)

The connecters are nothing like the skoda one...is there an adapter you can get?

Also...

Iv also purchased a Kenwood double din satnav what iso thing do I need ( pc5????)

Thanks in advance

you need a din to fakra adaptor.

If you dont use the oem unit which uses a fakra socket you will also need a signal booster as they use a powered aerial

So the aerial I bought is amplified can I take a 12v feed from the interior light in the boot?

[ryan-re]

not from the boot light. That will drain the battery.

Remember the boot light will be wired so its only switched on when the boot is open BUT with the ignition off you can force it to turn on/off so its a perm live not ign/switched live which is what you need.

You will need to run cable from the fuse box to the boot to power it making sure you use a switched live not permanant OR you can wire it up to the remote cable on the back of the headunit
