Hi, I need some technical advice on a PA78DLRIPL that I bought. The supplied harness/s don’t fit or match up with the 2 that are used with the cars existing radio?? It states that I can use both the original car radio and the android unit together? How is this possible or is there harness wiring adaptors I need to purchase? Thank you

Any news on this one.
I have the same problem and I would love to hear how it has been solved by others.

I know it's probably not much help but my xtrons came with 2 sets of leads with different types of connectors for the car harness connectors.

Perhaps supplier can help.

I bought mine from here:

Thanks for the reply.
I sent a message to the people who sold me the unit and asked for help.
I also looked on the xtrons uk site and saw an adapter for Ford and land rover.
I suspect my plug is a ford specific one which was used on my car and then they changed to DIN type at a later date, but I'm no expert on this, I will try to contact them tomorrow and see if they can put me on track.

OK
If it helps anyone, I ended up cutting the piggyback lead off, then connecting the live and neutral into the existing radio lead.
Had to take an ignition switched live from the cigarette lighter in the centre console, conveniently the lighter also has a light which comes on with the headlights so I used a feed from that to the terminal which dims the display when the car lights are switched on.
Downloaded tomtom but still struggling to find how to force apps to load onto the usb stick attached, im sure I saw an option for this somewhere.
Just ordered trim clips to replace the broken ones, and hope to get it wrapped up early this week.
