The two round ones are for FAKRA cables. |

They are AV wires basically. A Satnav would use them, likewise a revering camera or even the more basic form of onscreen display that you get, that sort of thing. Did you remove the cable from it or is it bare as in the photo?

The factory stereo isn't one I'd change. It's integrated into the cars systems. Could run a piggy back, but finding the space for its a problem, maybe the glove compartment? |

Hello, Has anyone tried to feed those fakra inputs from AV resources? My original sat nav has also two bare fakra inputs and I would really like to know how I can get them working. P.s. When I had removed my satnav to fix airvent tabs, I was surprised to find out that no cables were connected to those fakra inputs as I thought one of them should have been for gps antenna. Don't we have a gps antenna? |

GPS antenna connects to SatNav unit under seat.

Hi, Today I took out the sat nav unit to find out if I could feed any video through those fakras. I used a reversing camera, given electric through reading lights, and an AV-to-Fakra connector. However, nothing has happened. As far as I understand, those inputs somehow need to be activated- perhaps ccf. ![]() |
