Had a look on corsa c and the cig lighter just pulls out so hopefully can get access to it with my hand down the back to run the wire

Thinking about it not that easy tbh, only way I can think of off the top of my head is round the side of the console.

Aye its an 06 so assuming thats can bus? Has a wierd iso block connector too. I just Tied the red wire into the power feed on the cars loom. Might go back and tie it into ignition live (yellow wire) if thats correct so the cd player doesnt get a constant live

I couldn't get my JVC to work with the ISO connector i got last weekend. My fingers were all sore after a couple of hours messing around so gave up.

easy when you know how :D should be a extra wire taped to the ciggy lighter thats an ignition feed. connect the red wire coming from the quad lock to there and it should work.
all i used to do was fit car radios for about 2 years.

Iv fitted pioneers, alpines and jvc's to 5 different types of car and never had this bloody bother. £30 for a connector and it still doesnt work!

Fitted a stereo to the other halfs corsa c last night. Since when did fitting a stereo get so complicated?
Bought all the connector blocks, fine. After alot of trial and error I discovered that for some reason it needs 2 +ve feeds? Never spent so long fitting a car stereo before
