VX factory stereo upgrade problem

[gsx913]

Hi,

I've spent a lot of time scouring these forums in the hope that my question has already been answered, but to no avail.

I have a VXII Berlina and have acquired a Eurovox headunit and cd stacker from a 2001 Statesman, along with the factory amplifier and rear speakers. Got the headunit working and stacker set up in the boot no worries,--that all works, however I don't know how to hook the headunit to the amplifier for the rear speakers. I have also noticed that there is a second plug on the back of the headunit, similar to the one the normal wiring loom is connected to, but not as wide--I am not sure what this is for but an guessing this might have something to do with it.

Also, the steering controls don't work when this unit is in the car and I'm not too sure why either.

Anyone out there who can be of assistance?

Thanks!

Daniel, as your team leader I think you should spend less time of forums and more time concentrating on the more important things in life. Harrassing people.

Its great fun. Its nice to see 77people have looked at it and no1 even said booo...

Why bother with stock audio gear? Get all aftermarket audio gear and it will sound at least twice as better.

Thanks!

The third plug is for the sub woofer amp. Did you get the wiring loom from the Statesman as well?
I can't help with the steering wheel controls but I'm sure someone will be able to help.
Regardless of what other people may think, the Eurovox Maestro Series system sounds quite good.
Edit: I just noticed this thread is about 9 months old and the guy has probably got it sorted out by now.

i did get it sorted... see the how to section

also, the amplifier in the boot is patched into the rear door speakers. do that and run power to the amp... problem solved.
