Fabia radio change

So is the Jury still out on this one? The powers that be say the amplifier is in the original radio, whereas there seems to be a few of you who say otherwise...

Right I've bought and fitted one of these PC5-52s today, and it's made a world of difference! I ended up using the output for the electric aerial on the radio so it just powers on when the radio's on. Sucess! A special note if you decide to get one from halfords though - get it off their website. Even with postage it works out cheaper than buying one in-store.

The connector on the back will be a standard ISO type connector. When using an aftermarket unit you normally have to swapp the permanant live and switch live around.

Thats pins 4 (brown & red) & 7 (blue & black) of iso conector A?
