Default A huge BIG UP to....................................Me!:cry:

I'm well chuffed with myself!

I wired up my power roof and heated front screen last night with NO wireing diagrams what so ever

Both the looms were from a Mk4 as the Mk3 never came with these options, so i had chop stuff about. I cut loads of wires from various relays, all that was left on the screen was the switch relay and the actual screen relay, even the timer works and it turns its self off after a short time

The roof works pukka-dandy too!

Yeah all tested, the up button operates the volume on the stereo and the down decreases the pressure in the tyres
