Please can somebody help me!

I have a JVC head unit that I want to put in my car but it's a struggle.

This is the wiring in the car -

25558

This is the wiring that plugs into the head unit -
25559

Is there a lead that I can just plug between the two to make the wife talk to me again?!

I've checked the autoleads site and apparently, they don't have anything!

Please help!!!!

Thanks :-)

Maybe I'm being daft but not quite sure what you mean. Don't the two just connect together? If not then maybe you've got the wrong adapter lead. Looks the same as when I did my A3 a while back though but there are a few types. You'll probably need an FM amplifier (cheap from Amazon or eBay) as the amplifier is built into the stock head unit and your aftermarket JVC won't have one.

Just checked and I used autoleads adapter PC9-404 from Amazon for my non-Bose A3 8l plus Pc5-90 amplified aerial adapter (also Amazon) when I did mine. Good luck with it.

You have to be careful with ignition. My B6 came with 6 cd multichanger unit and it used CAN to wake up. I've end up taking a line of rear wiper as ignition for new unit.
