I think I will order the part as the intergration appears very good according to youtube. Where does you ipod cable reside if you dont mind me asking?

Mine is in the glove box, you might be able to get it to strech to the arm rest. There are 2 parts you need to order. Control box and harness cable. Shame you'r so far south. If you were near me was going suggest i sell you mine if you could take it out. Don' use mine any more since I got my iPhone

Well I have manage to pick the MPS up and I am very happy with it!!
Didn't stay standard for long!! Already changed the sidelights and numberplate lights to LED ones!
Does anyone know what type of bulbs are used in the fog lights and what HID bulbs are used in the mkII MPS? Looking to get some 6K HID bulbs in place of what i already in there. Has anyone changed the HID bulbs out of curiosity??

Haven't ended up having them not much to be honest. Corksport an American Mazda tuning company actually them as a drl conversion. Another reason I did it was to even he colours up at the front toget rid of the yellow. They are no worse than any standard drls and like I said they don't cast the light. Probably depends whatmood mr copper is in

I have already changed the sidelight and number plate bulbs to LEDs but want to change HID to either 6 or 8K bulbs hence why I am looking to find out what bulbs they are. Looking on the US forums it suggests they are D2S type bulbs. Looking under the bonnet I can see plugs either side for the headlamps so I am guessing the must unplug and somehow headlamps pull forward after unscrewing a few bits Have you change the egg yolk indicator bulbs too? Need to find out what fitment they are too and if yellow LEDs work with them
