Great! Thank you. Have it out now, and cable in, however can't seem to switch it from the radio to the iPhone. I push the mode button and nothing happens. Hold it and I just get tp-mem and then the radio comes back.
What am I missing?

Looks like you need CD changer connected as well to allow it to switch to CD mode and use that input. So you need spitter cable something like this to connect both: http://www.discountcarstereo.com/AA8-HAR.html

Which exact model radio is that, I don't recognise it?
__________________
2003 D2 FL S8. Irish Green Pearl/Beige. Solar sunroof, auto-dim mirrors, electric rear seat functions, ski hatch retrofit; extended leather. Aftermarket DVB-T, reversing camera and full XCarlink (Bluetooth etc.).
2016 Volvo V40 T5 Cross Country (4WD) with ALL the toys including adaptive cruise etc. etc. Osmium Grey with Blonde/Charcoal leather interior. Polestar performance "optimisation". (A much rarer model than a D2 S8 by the way!) Oh, and a brand new engine at just under 30,000 miles on the factory one!
Finally: gone, but not forgotten.....
1998 D2 PF S8. AgateGrey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors.
e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)
1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon, Auto-dim mirror, Leather, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer.
And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Ah right that makes sense. I suppose I could also splice into the existing line in to make it connect too?

I don't see why not. You can also make splitter canble yourself if you want, you can get plugs and pins here: http://www.nexxia.co.uk/products.asp...O%20Connectors, probably on the e-bay as well.
