On an Omega??? Surely not. Given Holden don't wire *anything* that's not fitted, why would this suddenly have appeared on an Omega?

The wiring for power windows is on my VT Acclaim and it was optioned with power windows but doesnt have them. But that's not usually the case I guess.

Sorry to waste everyone time... Haha.
I went and purchased the bluetooth kit and installed it. That black sensor i was talking about turned out to not be a sensor at all, it is in fact an aftermarket phone antenna no longer in use. In no way does it look like an antenna at all. But the loose female MC plug on the other end of the cable down where the factory bluetooth module sits gave it away. Evident on the 'Factory option connector' where i had to plug in the module is some aftermarket wiring which has also been cut and left... Mystery solved :)

Bluetooth Module works well with my iphone for the record.

Cheers,
Martin.

big brother is watching you.... my advice is to drive like miss daisy, and always give way to drivers of sandstorm coloured sportwagons. better yet, pull over so they can drive past you ;).

you can never be too careful.

OK, this is the rain sensor. gottavecalaisv, this is your rain sensor for the auto wipers. OP, is this what you have? Still hanging out for that pic...
