Looks good and I've a Brodit where yours is too!

Good price on the amp, I need to put one in my car. How did you connect yours up? I thought the rear sub's wires were under the seat.

Yes the connections are under seat but the InCarTec loom already has two pink flying leads which connect via the multiplug. I simply extended those speaker cables and included them in the speaker loom from under seat back to head unit and then connected to amp. You could put amp under set but then you still need to get RCA and remote cable down there anyway so a 50/50 decision and I like the neatness on where the amp fits by glovebox behind the panel

Forgot to mention USB lead into glovebox with a 32GB data stick with tunes on

Nice install did you have the Logic 7 system previously, if so are you still using all of the speakers and the original amp. Life's too short to drive boring cars !

No but then I never used the voice guidance part so not an issue for me and prefer google maps on phone as more accurate anyway TDV8 now with extra grin factor thanks to Alive Tunning: Gone but not forgotten

Makes sense, I regard the built in sat nav as a novelty not something useful. Do you definitely have sound coming out of the tweeters? I've seen some posts saying that after upgrading it only comes out of the bigger speakers.

Yep definitely sound from tweeters as on same feed to doors as main speakers

If you look at this circuit diagram in the gallery you can see the wiring diagram on page1

Thanks, I assume its the logic7 that has the seperate twweter/mid and bass circuits in the door shown on page 3 of those diagrams?

Really good thread, thanks for sharing the info.
