C70 - Parrott CK3100 and SC805

[Maverick]

Having bought the car I need to fit my Parrott, but the ISO connectors seem to need some modifiation. Has anyone done this?, any help appreciated.

Yes. Works right out of the box... Done both of mine.

Why do you say the ISO's need modding??

The Parrott come with ISO connectors for power and speakers, When I looked the connectors on the RAdio are different, Parrott web site says I need a loom adaptor.

I can't seem to get any progress with this, spent some time with my local ICE dealer and still not got a solution, they supplied two harness adaptors so far and neither work. It seems there is an external amplifier as there is a DIN type connector on the back of the SC805.

From what I can see, with the 805 amplified system (and/or dolby) you need the 06-920B SOT lead, which alas is £78 or so.

I went to another ICE dealer to try and get a solution, they claim it can be done at the amplifier instead of the head unit, trouble is ..... where is the amplifier?? any help appreciated TIA

After much time wasted with ICE specialists and conflicting advise - I opted for the 'basic' installation wherby an external speaker is installed and simple connections for the power. All installed and sorted now. worked out the speaker connection from PArrots FAQ pages and found that pin 9 on the head unit is radio mute on the SC805. I hope this helps others.
