Roylewaa Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 If you take the glovebox lid off you can help pull the loom through the 2 holes at the back of the recess to enable enough space for the headunit to go right backHope this helps:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 It's very tight in there, the best thing is to cut the plastic out from the back, that makes a bit more room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Can sometimes shove it downwards at the back either side of plastic if ya cables long enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yeah mate, the room behind the head unit is really tight. If there's extra cables for amps and stuff, then the best thing to do is try and remove as much of the plastic panel right where the rear of the head unit sits, and then feed the cables down the left hand side (there's a small gap there) and into the area at the side of the glovebox. I'm sure there's a how to somewhere in the electrical bit for it if you get stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
