Facia & amp bypass lead - parthiban - 13-01-2018
There's definitely an autoleads amp bypass cable, it's in their catalogue.
Facia & amp bypass lead - SHAHZ - 13-01-2018
DJ Wozza Shaz I don't think Autoleads ever made a "bypass lead", there is an Autoleads lead suitable for the "S" model, but not for the "SE" or "Sport" to my current knowledge.
If it is one the shop has made up themselves I would guess you are ok, but like 2tongues said, it seems suspiciously cheap.
I wish I had seen this before mate, as I have an unused facia kit (donated by Bobby), and I also think a bypass lead somewhere too. Will have to check later today.
What Head unit are you putting in ? You know I'm a phone call away mate, but can't do anything this weekend as I'm away from Sat until Tuesday afternoon.
Woz, your right its not an 'autoleads' product and is probably made by the shop, will put up a pic of the lead tonight to make sure its the right one and theres no cables/pins missing!, if it is the right one then its a bargin that others can benefit from, if not its going back, as i said the shop aint far from me!
Re the your spare facia, seeing as your the founder and pro of the 'facia mod' you could always mod it and have the one i just bought.......:wink::wink::p
......nah just kidding mate!!......thing is im so tight on time these days, will probably end up putting it in as is without filling/repainting it!Thanks for the offer mate, and probably will give you a call if i get stuck, if you could you send me any walk throughs you have would be much appreciated mate!

Facia & amp bypass lead - SHAHZ - 13-01-2018
DJ Wozza Mate I got bad news, just looking around I found this info...
LINKY
What is even worse, Bassjunkies are selling the same (unsuitable) lead for £45.00 !!!!
I do hope the info on this lead is wrong mate, but from the first link it would deffo seem to be for the non-ampified "S" model.
Shaz I will go look now to see if I have a spare bypass lead, fingers crossed.
Ok that is the lead, so it is the wrong one, looks like it will be going back:mad::Shooting:

SHAHZ :Chair::Chair: :Shooting: thats a good point mate, thanks, yeap head unit has one, so i can connect this directly to the current illumination wire, thanks
See my thread on how I did my illumination wiring, here :wink:
Facia & amp bypass lead - SHAHZ - 13-01-2018
DJ Wozza Might be the correct one looking at the link from Bandit ? Only way to be sure is try it mate. I have found the bypass lead given to me by Bobby, so if not I have one here.
Seems there are some alternate harness adaptors with RCA/Phono inputs(?) available too according to that catalogue ?
Yeah thats what i thought although mine is a 2000 and according to the catalogue its for 2001-2004? Anyone with a 2000 IS confirm which it is?

I have found that often the adaptor leads on eBay have inconsistent part numbers versus their description, e.g. the part number for a non-bypass lead but the picture/description of a bypass lead ? Or some other combination of the above ?
Best to get it in writing from the seller that it definitely is a bypass lead suitable for your car, then if it turns out to be wrong they'll have to swap it.

As above, bandits link shows that it is a bypass cable for 2001-04 cars, however the item on ebay didnt specify year of car

You could give autoleads a call, they were really helpful when I got my telemute lead.
