mk4 head units

[teeth2k]

yeh realy good glad i got the cable and also that i can stick to the factory unit. another question i have noticed that the faster i go the louder the radio gets and i slow down and the music get quieter i know some units can do this so im guessing the alarna h/u does this? ture ?

Correct - there is a speed pulse wire in to the back of the head unit - and if you go in to the basic set up menu you can set how much louder it gets with speed.

It's only a "LOW", "MEDIUM" or "HIGH" setting but it can be changed

This is a great thread. I am trying to connect an aux cable (for my Tomtom or MP3) to a factory HU in 2004 Alhambra. As a newbie I put a new post in the Alhamra forum but thought I would put a pointer to it here in case anyone mises it there and can help. Please don't shout too loud at me for cluttering the thread...

I bought one of these - can't remember the price now - but the workaround mentioned above does not seem to work with the Alhambra radio. It seems you need some additional hardware or something, so "thrown" in the corner for now until I have time to investigate further.

Here's a link to the one I found - cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310194363390&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:GB:1123 - £8.99

If anyone has any ideas...
