The stuff in the 3rd pic I quoted of your should plug into the spots shown in the 2nd pic I quoted. It's for your iPod/iPhone stuff and to add the RCA connectors for something like an amp.

As for your iPhone issues, I wish I could offer help but I've never owned an Apple device. I'm a hardcore Android guy

What color are the LED's on this unit? Please tell me they are red!

Great job!
@Narcoden thanks for that.

I'll number the issues so you can keep track!

1. So if I have nowhere to plug the first male plug I assume that means I can't wire a separate Bluetooth mic? Shame if that's the case as the built in mic isn't very good.

2. I thought the first plug was meant to do the job of the third but that's cool I'll plug the other two in and use the iPod lead and not worry about the other stuff at this stage.

Then I just need to wire the aerial when my aerial adapter arrives.

3. Posted a little later I sorted the iPhone thing. It was an apostrophe in the device name that android didn't like.

4. I was about to root it. Had all the files but put it in the right micro SD slot and there's nothing there. Only the left slot appears to have the SD micro female slot. So my micro SD simply disappeared inside the unit. Not sure whether to leave it in there or try and take the unit apart to get it out - what do you reckon?

And, on the LEDs, drumroll, they are.............. Green! Bright green unfortunately. The only good news is that they are only on if the headlights are on.

Are you able to give me your opinion on items 1 and 4 please?

Thanks heaps
