Hey guys,
I'm looking at fitting factory Sat Nav to an AU2 Fairlane. Now I'm just wondering if it's all plug and play. If I have the unit, loom and the disc player in the boot, does it all plug into the factory loom without needing anything else..? Has anybody attempted or achieved this modification..? Also, can you still get the current maps for the system..? Any help is appreciated..! Cheers

Not sure about the wiring Kris, but I do have maps as of Sept 2009. PM me if you go ahead with this project.

I haven't attempted it, but I do know the dash is physically different, so is the wiring...

It was a $5K option, so in a Lane, you would expect the wiring to be there. Actually, the wiring diagrams on here should tell you.
Let me know if you need me to take any photos Kris. Stu

you basically need perm. +12v, switched +12v, Ground, speed signal, sidelights signal (dashboard/radio illumination) and reverse signal. you should not bother with the reverse signal unless you reverse 50 meters on a regular basis. speed signal will only be there if your car is a high specs one (eg Fairmont), if it is a low specs one like mine (Forte) you need to get the speed signal from the odometer cluster. NB you should not use the GND line on the radio harness (but rather any chassis point or the metal radio cage itself) as it can cause problems with the backlight of the tiny LCD panel of the odometer counter.

Thanks for that I have a full loom that came with the package, but i assumed fairlanes were pre wired Its all fitted now, just no sat nav hooked up. I might sell it off and get one of those LCD gauges.

fairlane was definitely were pre wired so as fairmont but even the low series falcons have a dedicated sat nav fuse (monochrome pictogram only vdo dayton pc3200/pc4000 was an option while high series and ltd and fairlane used the full grown colour pc5000) but I got no idea where the plug should be and has always been lazy to trace it back from the fuse box
