Good reading. My radio is the Alpine XQD10158OLNF not the posh one that Gordon has!

The cd player was junked as it was jammed. The cable is there but I threw the cd player as when I took the cover off springs fell out. I think there was previous surgery in there.... I bought the bluetooth module as per Stockholm audio and mines the wrong radio (it's promised to Gordon when I find it).

Marty where would I look for that wire? Will it be in the one of the plugs on the back of the radio?

So I’m going to pull my factory radio out and see if the lead can be soldered to the cassette head board, if it works I might even remove the cassette head, can honestly say I don’t have a cassette anywhere, vinyl yes, but think upgrading to a turntable on the passenger seat might get me some grief from swmbo 😁

I just use one of those 3.5mm to tape adaptors to connect my phone to the stereo. It isn't perfect but for a fiver it does a damn good job!

Connects 2 radio auxiliary input adapter for Alpine radio on P38

I got one supposedly suitable for the Alpine radio on my 4.0 HSE model year 2000. Turned out the unit supplied was incomplete and needed another cable at around half as much again direct from Connects 2 after original supplier refused point blank to help. Several E-Mails back and forth to Connects 2 later I think I'd got all the connection data sorted but enthusiasm had more than run out so it still sits in a box somewhere.

If anyone wants it I'm open to modest offers. Assuming I can find it and the essential connection data.

Hi Clive,

I hate it when that happens. I got burned enough over the years and now say "Is that everything I need to complete that job or are there other bits I need to make that happen? If not I'm going to return all of it and you can refund me."

It's for the rear footwell light that goes under the overhang of the center console in the rear footwell.

Not all vehicles were fitted with it, and that's where the connector to the vehicle loom hides for some reason.

Marty - I found the mounting holes for that light today. I would never have known it was there unless I dismantled the cubby console

So is it the same fitting as all the other lights ?

It´s the same as the glovebox light, not like the front footwell or puddle lights.
