I know about the search function, but it removes ISO, so all i get is a load of Weber threads lol

Anyways, what's the crack with these ISO connectors...

And which one will I need, as I have a 1990 Mk2, I am informed there are a couple of types for nova fitments....

To be honest, I cant be ****d wiring it in properly, and it's not going to be a heavy install, just going to replace standards and replace head unit and some 5.5" in the doors.

ISO connectors convert a non-standard car stereo loom to the ISO standard one. The one that comes with a new stereo converts from the ISO standard to the connections on the back of the new head unit. Nova looms are ISO ones, but usually the switched and ignition lives are the wrong way around, if they are (ie stereo doesnt turn off when you turn the ignition off), swap the red+yellow over on the loom that comes with the stereo, using the bullet connectors already on it.

exactly wat welsh dan said but get the two seperate iso blocks ie power on one and speakers on the other as the iso block stuck together is a bitch to fit

You can get these on eBay for as little as £2.
