Bongo Fury

Hi again,

Another question from a new Freda owner I`m afraid

I am picking up a Ford Freda this week, and I have bought a DVD player for it. Will the Mazda ISO connectors you see on eBay / Halfords be the same for the Freda or will I need Ford ones?

Again, thanks in advance guys

Neil

Mazda ones should do just fine - I seem to remember they were quoted as 121 adaptors.

As far as I am aware, the only difference between the Mazda and the Ford versions is the badges. The wiring should be identical. The adapter I used when I connected my radio was a PC2-10-4, from Halfords.

if you want the iso lead, the ones from halfords were £15 when i bought mine, but after i bought it i found that bongobits did them for £11 they use to sell them for around £7.50

hi neil qestion for you
why do you need a iso adapter ?
unless your bongo /freda has had wireing chopped you dont need them as most stereos now days come with one

all you need to do is swap yellow wire ( memory wire ) and red (live ) into each others connecter and hey presto you have memory on your stereo

Well, I`m not 100% sure whats behind the stereo thats in it at the moment as I pick it up this week.
It has an aftermarket stereo in it at the moment, so dont know what to expect really.

Thanks for the replies guys. Great as usual

neil you should be ok as many aftermarket stereo's are a straight fit

Sorry guys, but if you have a standard mazda or ford wiring harness it will not fit a standard uk radio with ISO connections - hence the need to buy one.
The one you need is a PC10-4 (I think) - it should state all Mazda except 121 (sorry Dandy).

- I thought it was something to do with the 121

The reason being that a 121 is/was a rebadged Ford Fiesta and it was made in Dagenham, so had ISO instead of Japanese connectors.
