Guest anthoc Guests Posted 22/12/02 05:49 AM Share Posted 22/12/02 05:49 AM You are quite correct. The Fairmont which has prestige sound has the large LCD display, not the colour display. The Fairmont Ghia has the colour TFT and of course the colour screen is required for any car that gets Sat Nav. It's easy to see what you have - if the screen's got greys and blues and an animated CD/FM/Am icon, then it's a colour display.What I was thinking was that if you don't have SatNav fitted, I don't think you get the connection at the bottom of the ICC to provide your Sat Nav video inputs. Let me know the SIDO of your car - I might be able to check it out. It should be somewhere on the docs you got from the dealer and should be a six digit number.The instrument panel wire harness is also Sat Nav unique so it may not carry all the required circuits. There is a blue connector in the RH kick panel for Sat Nav circuits only. It's mounted horizontally in the plastic box.Lastly, the auxilliary connection uses a simple wire assembly to tap into the auxilliary connector behind the junction/fuse box. I think that you press AM twice to enable the aux input. It mutes the other source and takes it's line level input from the connector. A word of caution - don't run your MP3 player or CD player output from the headphone socket a full volume. The input is designed for a line level input so work on about half-volume to start with. Any stereo input whether it be MP3 player, CD player, or cassette player will work. Cool, huh!
