Metra Kit

Hi guys,

I was getting my double DINN stereo installed, and ran into some troubles. Apparently the metra kit doesnt support aussie version cars as the middle modes work, the fan speed and temperature controls arnt working. Currently stuck trying to get the aussie adapter, does anyone know where i can get one, or if it even exist's?

Thanks,

The Metra kit doesn't support Climate Control. Not sure the other options do. I have listed the other options a few times on the .com.au forum, would dig them up but I am heading out the door.

Cheers

argh, i left my metra kit in there. I wont have the aussie version HVAC adapter for atleast another fortnight. I left the climate on like 23degrees and now its like boiling inside the car and i cant turn the fan off lol..

Any ideas on how i could reset it so the fans off or turn the heating off?

Still got my metra sitting in there, it seems to turn the heater on randomly which I'll probably just pull the fuse out till i get HVAC working. Definitely before the high 20's weather arrives.
