Don't tell my physio, as he goes radio rental, but I find it relieves my back.

Also, the steam at the moment loosens the flippin' snot I'm full of.

If it's of any help then the "analogue" signal that the ABS/TC module produces in the Omega isn't actually analogue at all. I STR that it's a 0 / +12v "square" wave that changes either frequency and/or mark/space ratio with speed. I scoped it once in a former life - but can't remember much more than that .......

I know for sure that it's a blue/red cable - on the Omega ..........

I don't think you are going to find a speed pulse signal in your Insignia.

I think you are going to need one of these http://sailesmarketing.com/products/can-bus-interfaces/cb-1-canbus-interface/ to receive the speed data from the canbus and give you a speed pulse for the taximeter.

NB this isn't a recommendation for that particular manufacturer, just an illustration of the device you need (though of course they may be an excellent manufacturer :-\)

So your looking for a digital speed signal, not an analogue one?

To finish my input, you either need a converter such as a CANM8-PULSE (sub 50 notes) or you would have to tap into the ABS sensor input to the ABS ecu.

The meter is a digitax f1. Whatever the Omega/Vectra C produces works, so looking for same on Insignia :y

Considering... http://www.connects2.co.uk/ProductInformation.aspx?id=10862&p=CTHVX02

As only has CD400, so swapping my current bluetooth headunit is a possibility...
