Has anyone managed to remove a cobra tracker from their D3, including all the wiring?
I had the glovebox out and came across the unit shoved in above the air duct. So far I managed to track down the GPS unit in the engine bay, some sort of aerial near the left air vent and a mass of wiring going to the left side fuse box. There is also some wires going across to the drivers side, and in there I've found a relay, an in-line fuse, but the wiring disappears up behind the cluster somewhere.
I removed the connector going into the tracker, and as a result the car doesn't start. I suppose one option is to just leave it all there, but having searched for and found this post by Audidothat:

with the car not getting used a lot, I'd like to have it removed to try and preserve the battery. I also discovered the damage the original fitters did to the car that they tried to hide with some sort of white mastic, as well as missing screws.
