Crikey Clive and Sarah - didnt think you'd need a soldering iron - thought it was plug and play?

Mike, the ISO connectors had been removed and the Bongo wire loom directly connected to the head unit connecting wires with twisted the soldered wires to improve then connection. All very secure but awkward to change. Crimmped bullet connectors used eventually so didn't use the soldering iron in the end but warmed it up.......and kind of just knew I'd melt something. Ho hum....it was only minor damage. :(

Happens every time I go to use a soldering iron. I never seem to learn, but they are not v friendly in design though thats for sure. :(
