For the IS250 dvd hack, I was reading the two pdfs and it says "Plug K46, Closest to driver"

It seems like these pics are of a left hand drive IS. For the aussie drivers, is it still the plug closest to driver or is it now furthest from driver (for right hand drive ISs).

I'm going to give this a go soon but just wanna make sure I'm well prepared.

Another thing, has anybody tried removing the unit on a manual IS? If so, any guides?

Any help would be appreciated,

Cheers.

You need the PDF that talks about the pink and white w/silver wire and the red you earth. Dont worry about lefthand drive just follow the images. All id say is be gentle with ur vents, we pryed them from the sides not the top or bottom as there is more meat there so they are less likely to break. It's not a difficult mod so dont be afraid to do it, just remember it is proven to work, just check the threads + it worked for me no issues. I wouldnt bridge the NAV tho, seems pointless to make ur NAV jumpy, just earth the handbrake and bridge the light pink to the white/silver and that gets the dvd working no issues!

Good luck

Hey, Did the mod last night, I would say the hardest part is getting the vents out and having the balls to cut the wires. Works a treat tho, all done in 20 mins.

Only point I might add is there are 2 wires that look pink, dark pink and light pink, it is the light pink one that you connect to the white with silver and the dark pink (red) is the handbrake that is earthed (loom side remember).

If you can wire a standard cd deck then you can easily do this mod, dont be scared, it'll save you a fortune and it is easy as with a bit of confidence.

Thanks for the diagrams!
