Now to get the SDS working.....Some clever boffin at Audi decided that it would be a good idea to have 2 different green wires and two different black wires coming from the bluetooth box and then hide one set within a sealed black cable, after lots of investigation scratching of heads and a cup of tea the correct wires were eventually discovered, the fox that is Nigel, was nearly out foxed by those boffins at Audi!!!!! But seriously who would run two sets of wires the same colour from the same box!!!!

Wires splayed and connected RNSE in whoooo....:yahoo: now for coding...

My absolute pleasure Tom, also a real gent & very patient, those damn mic wires, I mean who the hell has same colour wires on same connector, ****** audi, but eventually sussed it, thank god after one hell of a day yesterday on Smudge Don's A3.

Overall though was a good result, just have to reposition that poxy gps antenna now huh Tom, was fine here wasnt it mate, typical, oh well guess RNS casing is shielding it some, but we'll get it sorted out.

Thats not Nigel, he only wears sandals when doing car mods!

After yesterday with Jordans A3 of hell, I had to keep warm today mate, so sandals were taking the day of, which they do deserve a holiday for once, although have them back on now, lmfao

Yes very patient trusting chap, but worth the wait for the look & use of the upgrades now, love that wheel man.

After the weekend I've had I think I'm entitled to lay down mate, lol, whole body was cramping yesterday doing jordans motor, he can write that fecker up, talk about Christine the devil car, lol, nah nice car just some mofo seized bolts & shot brakes, few other difficult things but overcome, albeit with pain all good now though.

It was Nigels one from his motor.

It was indeed.
