Hey guys any idea how to wire an MP3 player to my car. The connections don’t fit and I have no clue how to fit them. Thank you!

Hi,

Ours had ISO connectors on the car loom already, so if your new unit doesn't have these it's usually easiest to get adaptors from the likes of Halfords or online suppliers. If you Google for 'standard iso car stereo wiring' you'll be able to see what that connector looks like and decide if that's what is in your car. It may be that someone has changed them at some point in it's life (or that's happened to ours, I don't know it was ISO when it was new)

Hope that helps. Simon

All 6N2s had standard ISO plugs

Your radio should have a 'helper' loom to go from the radio to the cars loom included in the box

I have a quick question, I was driving my polo and while I was driving the red oil light was flashing and I’m not sure if it because there is low oil pressure or low oil level or if it has to do with the transmission oil level as it has a slight leak. Thanks for your help

That’s low engine oil pressure. Get it checked. Sometimes the sensors go faulty over time but don’t risk it
