gingergman Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 the black plug is for the main power, connect the red and yelloe together and attatch to red of car, (yellow is memory perm live) black to brown on the car, earth, then it should power up. no need for blue (amp) the other block is just speakers, two per speaker, a solid colour and that colour with a stripe are the pairs, the box should tell you what speakers there for, front or rear.

Guest kelvinMK3 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 do the right thing bud. Buy any iso connector (auto leads), cut the car end off and solder the connections up properly. Ive got a mk6, which is rubbish aswell and will be replaced with proper joints. Do you have a test meter or one of them screw drivers that light up when voltage passes through. If not i'll check mine and post up. At least you've got wires and speakers, my mk2 fiesta van has no wires and no speakers just a mint single din hole that nothing every been fitted in .
