Hi Revoltos, The installation only requires 3 steps: 1) Removing the stereo. I took a few photos of the stereo removal, as I found it to be the most painful part. 2) Inserting the ISO wiring loom. This is pretty straight forward. Remove the Quadlok connector from the back of the stereo and plug it into the female quadlok connector on your ISO wiring loom. Then plug the male quadlok connector from the ISO wiring loom into the stereo. Finally swap the fuse connectors around so the constant 12V goes to the switched 12V feed and the switched 12V to the constant 12V of the Parrot unit. 3) Route

Finally got around to finishing off the installation. Looks like simion_levi was right all along :-) I checked the two feeds coming out of the quadlok connector into the iso wiring loom and there was a constant 12v and a switched 12v. I had originally made the stupid mistake of swapping the feeds in the iso loom (2 bullet connectors) rather than at the fuses as the Parrot instructions recommend. I swapped the feeds at the fuses and everything works fine i.e. I finally get the goodbye message when turning the ignition off. The installation was extremely easy as there is no need to remove an

Quick update on the installation... The kit went on very easily and appears to work fine. I can make and receive calls and the stereo mutes as expected. However, I still appear to have a problem with the power feeds to the unit. The wiring loom entering the Parrot kit should contain a switched 12v and a constant 12v. The unit should say "goodbye" when the ignition is switched off. This is not happening..! The unit is powering down though. In most cases this is due to the Parrot kit expecting the constant 12V on a particular pin out of the ISO adapter. The Parrot kits are made in France and

Thats 370mA your meter is reading and not 37mA. 1mA = 0.001A or in other words 1x10^-3. Have you installed any after market devices in the car, such as a handsfree kit which may be drawing extra current? (this can be excessive if it's not going into standby mode when the ignition is switched off)

Thanks for the quick responses. It looks like the best option is to carry out the installation and see if the switched live is still in the stereo loom. I'll let you know how I get on, and I'll post details on the installation. I'd just like to add that the PC5-93-H European Radio Removal keys from Halfords (2 keys) do work on older 6000CD units. I have seen pictures on the web with them being used on what looks to be the exact same stereo. I'm not sure when this was changed to the new PC5-132 keys so I guess you'll have to do your own research to figure out what you've got on your head un

Hi, I've bought a Parrot 3200LS PLUS handsfree kit and want to install it on my 07 plate 2.0 TDCI C-Max. I've bought the correct stereo removal keys PC5-132 to remove the 6000CD head unit (4 keys). I was originally sold the PC5-93-H European Radio Removal keys from Halfords (2 keys) which were no good on the new head unit. These keys got lodged in the stereo when I attempted to use them. I had to apply quite a bit of force to remove them. Luckily nothing was damaged in the process but you should make sure you get the right keys so you don't have the same problems as I did. I've also bou
