Well i bought an FTO today :)

She's being delivered on monday, i did get the seller to knock $300 off the price due to a few small issues. It has a small dent in the rear wing, so im taking it to a panel beater in Mel (know of any good ones near Carrum Downs), heater core is buggered but ive bought one from the UK and my better half is shipping it over for me (less than $100). The rev counter is knackered and so its either sensor, wiring or tacho - not a major issue.

The thing that im annoyed about is, i bought a pioneer stereo for my iphone to work with, and the connector they gave me was this stupid small black (not ISO) and no other connections on it. Anyone know of where to get a decent set of audio wiring harnesses?!? Or if not what the wiring colours are from the cars point of view.

On monday, ill take some photos and post them up. Its got AB style Bonnet which i think looks pretty cool.

I think you'll find that the Audio harness for a Galant will be compatible, however I always just wire them up manually ..

WTTC & Congrats on the buy :)
