All items you buy MUST be depaired, and in Delivery state.

If not, they are expensive paperweights.

Additionally, assuming your NCDC was factory fit (PM me your reg, and I'll check), you need your carpass to depair your stuff first.

Its probably unlikely you will have the telematics wiring, so not a plug and play affair....

I have just bought that telematics module with a piece of loom... The correct connector have 32 pins, and I have just found a 18 pins connector behind my glove box, and no loom for antenna... So I'm after a plan to install all that properly...

The 18 Pin phone prewiring won't provide you with all the signals you require. You'll need the CAN lines as well.

Best to get hold of a Trafficmaster or SOT-078 loom and make yourself a sub loom off that and run the tails to the left of the centre console and out down the side to the glovebox area.

does that imply that if you have a trafficmaster system fitted already you may have looming for the telematics?

No sorry!

It's just that the Trafficmaster sub loom provides a base for building a Telematics loom without messing with the cars loom.

I run both a Nokia bluetooth / cradle (CK-7W) and the Telematics. Have to say that the Telematics is barely used but it's nice to know that you have it there in an emergency.
