My car is in many pieces for another issue, time to do it.... I now know simply getting to it is a lot more work on the '07 than it was on the '04

Yep, that’s the one

Wait... You got the IIDTool app installed and it talks to your dongle?
Mine flat out refuses to find it unfortunately as I was hoping to use it that way (I mean it's not hard to use on the phone itself, but still)
Thank you sir. I have the same unit coming.Quote:

Yeah i had already removed my CD player and looped the fibre plug with a little looper plug. I bought a few of them a while back as I wanted to remove all the things that would be replaced like Bluetooth module etc etcQuote:

Removal of the CD player opens the whole glovebox up. I have the USB and the sim car connector coming down into the glovebox for easy access. The other USB and aux is connected to my cig lighter flush mount.
Well, it was supposed to be 5... I'll need to check!Quote:

I'd probably start with the fibre connections, make sure they are all looped. Thats the link. The seller is really helpful ps, so probably will have a bunch of things to try.Quote:

car is MY07 TDv8 with HK Logic7 system including rear entertainment. Everything up front is good - as expected, I have lost:
1: Venture Cam
2: Rear entertainment screens.
The Venture Cam was great, stuck on the passenger side of caravan near the front to get a view down the side reversing in, I'm going to look at the RV specific cameras and probably need another screen just for towing - it just made parking it so much easier. I know what a problem!!
And you can install one of those "360 bird view" 4 camera kits but I cut that from the project cause I'm lazy and didn't like the idea of running camera wiring out into the wing mirrors. I am going to do it the wife's car as she likes curbing wheels [bigsad].
On the fence over the rear kids screens, after a bit of reading, I'm pretty sure I can build a stand alone system to run them but is it worth it?? not sure.....
Time to get the 3d printer on the task of a nice big glove box where the CD changer and Venture Cam was [biggrin]. If anyone is interested, let me know.....
