DIY Radio Reception

Hello Guys,
Received my fitting kit courtacy of Mikey, Thanks for being so quick mate. Fitted it this afternoon, Had to modify the Faceplate slightly to get it to fit straight, nothing major.
Only thing is, with the boost radio the reception was really good, Reception isnt the best it could be on my aftermarket, I Know its not the head unit as I had it in my last car.
Other thing, what is the spare white plug?
cheers
Dean

Make sure the electric aerial wire from your new stereo is connected to my adaptor - this turns on the booster in the mini aerial
The white plug is CD PREP

Just the holes at the bottom where the white knobby things go into, weren't big enough for the knobby things to go into, when you screwed it up it pushed the blower control panel back. Sorry dont know what there called! How do you connect the electric aerial wire in Mikey?

Hi Brocky, Do you still have your boost radio and would you like to sell it on? Let me know if it's a tape or cd if you are interested.

Cheers

Adam
