The new screen that came with the Sony will not...I did try that..but the screen doesn't even switch on with a time etc when connected with the old cd unit.

I see. I believe going from Bluetooth stereo > Sony is relatively straight forward. Going from basic > Sony maybe not so...

Should hopefully just be one wire which connects the 2 into 1....hopefully get it sorted tomorrow.

:'( went to get the wire and the guy said it won't work....the loom connection is different for the sony cd processing unit, so he told me I'd have to find the original wire which came with the unit and even then, id have to cut the existing loom and then find out what every wire does and match them up accordingly and if I mess anything up it could mess the canbus up...

[iNath]

Can you get some photos to show the difference?

So it's just the 2 blue wires that don't have anywhere to plug in?

[Vimal Tailor]

i think the blue wires are the aux point...its the other plug thats the problem...if u have a look in the sony picture...the plug is thinner then the older one...

Just to let you know mate I have the whole kit, got it off eBay. There all genuine brand new parts which came primed but where a lot cheaper than from ford saving around 500 quid. Il send a link, I got my wheels off eBay too and then sprayed them, even though it takes a while for a set to come up offer them a smaller price than there up for got mine for 400 in the end

Cheers H
