I'm fitting a new head unit in my Corsa B. Can I get an adaptor to fit the original wiring socket ?, if so could I get one from Hellfrauds, or do I have to go to vauxhaul?. Ta.

Or if you would rather save yourself the money, just change the red and yellow bullet connectors in your new headunits harness 
The headunit loom should fit the original socket as its already an ISO socket except for the igntion and permanent lives being reversed.

depending on the unit though, as long as the head unit you're putting in has its own loom, then yes, what Austin said is true, BUT ( ) if its a unit where the ISO's go straight into the unit(no additional loom, like old sony's/blaupunkts.....) then you'll need either a PC2-04-4 or to cut the OE wiring loom and swap permanent/switch live(not recommended)

If its a new headunit surely its not going to be an old sony and the new blaupunkts have a harness

ALL the blaupunkts ive ever fitted have had a set of ISO blocks inside, but with bare wires on the end.

I just phoned the mate that i fitted it for, he said he bought it from Uplands and they gave him a lead for his 206.
Stop being right

Thinking about it, 206 is ISO as standard, they would of supplied him with a PC2-36-4, which is simply an ISO extension, and not necessary unless on most Rover 400's. But then you have the hassle of where to put the wires.

Indeed it was just an ISO extension but this one had bullet connecters in the harness, you can see where i got mixed up though yes? Im not a halfords working hippy 
Dooms day tomorrow, we find out whether the chassis is fucked....
