problems installing new headunit

Featured Replies

Today I tried to install an adroid headunit and had some problems . can someone  help  me ?
1) There are so many cables in the back that on a Skoda Octavia 2010 is actually impossible to put the unit back in place from the front: I'll have to find a way around to the back to pull the cables . is there a tutorial?
2) The phone button on the steering wheel is working, but it commands either the headunit and the old bluetooth that was already in the car : how can I disable it on the car?

3) I already have a navigational aerial : you can see the blue cable in the first image. Is there a way to convert it to the second type of terminal?

Nobody? Please at least on point 1?

I have to reach the back of the headunit to pull the cables.

 

P.s. I found a way to solve point 3. There is a specific cable.

Take the top vent and tray above the radio out, you need to wedge something flat and wide to lever the tray out as it is held in by 2 plastic tabs and once out just disconnect the hazard light cable from the switch to remove the whole unit.

Thanks for the reply: do you know how the top vent is fixed?

I do not understand though why I should take the ashtray out...
