Sorry to hijack..

If that was done by creating a new cable to fit between the fascia and brain, I'm looking to do something very similar with my 7990, but can't source the connectors anywhere, nor can I find a real part number for them... if anyone's able to help, I'm all ears

Thanks

Mark

most people just solder some ribbon cable to each terminal.

This guy did it with a slot load DVD player:

yeah, it's pretty easy to do with a head unit. Just use a short run of cat5 to solder the leads. I would suggest looking around the Inet and researching if your specific head unit works well with this.
(Some have power requirements, aren't good with long runs of cat5, etc...)

Thanks guys, but the 7990 is a $2000 headunit which I have no intention of risking damaging, hence wanting to create a lead with the correct connectors on either end.. that way if I ever decide to sell it, the extra lead becomes a bonus with the sale rather than a hinderance. I've seen it done with F#1 kit before, so know it's possible.. I just need to find the correct connectors.

I realised after posting up here that the C701 connects via cable to the H701, rather than being mounted directly to it, so I doubt the person that did it will know what I'm on about.

Thanks anyway

So is my thread no longer hijacked?...

I really don't care if you hijack it, but I'd like an answer to my post first.

Hey, I found this site: http://tunertricks.com/blog/index.php?p=40
It may be the guy that did that... If its not, it is almost exactly the same! I know his stuff has been linked to on the forums. Hope this helps!

RedGTiVR6 · 01-18-2007, 06:44 PM

can I ask what you are looking to ask the guy?

Maybe we can help you figure it out?

it looks fairly simple. However, I don't know what the stock piece looks like. You could probably just secure the bucket to the stock piece and mold to it. Drill a hole out back and run the wire.

Bondo would probably do a good job for you...that and some duraglass for some strength. Just rough up the surface before you start to mold to it.

Bondo is garbage, just to let you know. it shrinks, not easy to sand poor quaility.
RAGE GOLD or Extreme is what i use.

Also just a tip: if you dont have duraglass theres a trick you can do, you get some cheap bondo kitty hair and mix it with some RAGE bodyfiller,gold or extreme prefered, and you get duraglass mixture almost. neat trick.

im sure it will be easy to mold but i wanted to know if he/she has his/hers where it can still fold up and hide, and how they ran the ai net cable(i think thats what the cable is called)
