Panel pulls off, fairly easy to do.

Find an aftermarket mount that you can use a double sided sticky pad on.

Replace the panel that the plugs sit in with an ordinary blank one, the section that the plugs sit in will unclip from the original panel if I remember right? Then hide them in the console and run extension cable from them to where you prefer.

Headphones are IR, widely available. Ebay has people selling various types. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Folding-IR-Stereo-2-Channel-Wireless-Headphone-Car-Headrest-DVD-Headset-New-/311514839238?hash=item4887bb38c6:g:5u0AAOSwNyFWg5kt

Where is the control unit located?

You'd have to break in to all the wiring lines(I would suggest using plugs if possible) and putting a switching system in. Or if you just wanted to get rid of the plugs in the back, the back of the console pulls off as a plate. You could then replace this with a regular Altea XL one with just...

Yes, the only link between the screen and head unit is aux input to play media through vehicle speakers. You could use the outputs from after market head unit to go to screen. Aux in lines on rear of center console also feed the IR transmitters on the screen.

I've searched but have come up with nothing.... I'm looking for detailed wiring diagrams for the lighting system with information location of relay/control units? Anyone know a good source? :help:

Is it possible to adjust settings on electrical system to avoid bulb warnings and hyperflash using VCDS on an Altea? I'm looking everywher to see if this is possible, but no joy! :banghead2

Yes, it's in the overhead console. I think it would be a lot of grief to try and convert the fitting to something more modern.

Nice one, ta! :)

Does anyone know how the Freetracks body mouldings are held to the body? Clips and double sided sticky tape?

When I got my Freetrack, one cup holder had the ashtray in and the other had a piece of foam cut to shape and placed in the bottom. I assume was to stop rattling from vibration because it obviously doesn't do anything to keep things stable. I have found that McDonalds Large drinks cups are a...

Thanks. ;)

What mounts/grommets should I be looking for to replace the ones on my Freetrack TDI? I've found some online but I'm not sure if they're right as I only have one of the old ones of my car and the only other one I had escaped on removal! :(

I did search but it didn't come up with anything. I figured it out in the end, just had to be a bit more heavy handed with them! Thanks.

Does anyone know what is the largest wheel fitment you can have on a Freetrack? Also I'm sure I have read that the track on a Freetrack is slightly wider than an XL, if so would it be down to the wheels or other components? Any pointers on this much appreciated. :help:

I thought this was just a case of removing the securing screw, stick something in the other hole to pull the surrounding out of the bumper. It appears this may not be the case, anyone taken these off before? :confused: :(

Use a mini piggy back fuse in fuse box under steering column, feed the live up A-pillar and top edge of windscreen/roof liner.

I do get this sometimes when the car goes a little faster then lands back on the cruise setting, it's not uncommon and not the only vehicle I've had this happen in.
