Good afternoon,
I recently picked up an Alpine iDA-X305SBT head unit and bluetooth module from a friend, I also picked up the Modifry unit and wiring harness.
I haven't done an install this complicated before and I am feeling a little lost. The head unit looks like a very straight forward install, Modifry has done a great job of idiot proofing that part of the install. Where I am running into questions I can't find the answers to is when I start looking at how to install the BT unit.
There are 4 leads coming off of the harness labeled, ACC, BATT, GND, and MUTE. My question to you is where should these wires be attached?
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated, just feeling really lost here.
Thanks,
Steve

Is the BT unit the one that comes with the iDA-X305SBT?

If so, plugging it in should be fairly straightforward with a single cable running from the module to the head unit, a power cable and the mic.
Did you not buy the Alpine PnP harness http://www.modifry.com/products/dci/pnp.htm from Modifry? It really is just plug and play.

I sent Bob an email just after posting here last night and he got back to me a little while ago with this very helpful response that I've included below should anyone else run into a similar situation:
ACC - accessory power which is the red wire in the PnP harness (not the smaller one that goes to the DCI module)
BATT - yes, yellow wire
GND - black in the PnP, not the small black in the DCI harness
MUTE - you will have to connect this to the pink wire in the PnP harness and set DCI switch 1 ON (up) so the DCI and BT module do not “fight” each other.
