ugh -- I wish I found this thread three hours ago!

I just had pretty much the same experience as the OP -- especially the f*#$%ing carpet and the CANBUS cover.

I still can't find the right "red" wire, but I'll try that again tomorrow.

the real problem I have is finding the right CANBUS connector -- the instructions say the third from the right -- but which side is the "right" side? It says to look for a brown/brown+black set in the fourth position, but in my car, neither "fourth" position wires (counting from both side) has brown/brown+black wires. they're all brown, or brown+red. there is one brown/brown+black, but I think it's on the end. So which one is right? Which side of the CANBUS connector is the "front"? Very frustrating.

Needless to say, I haven't gotten it working yet. I'll try again tomorrow or Monday.
