Phil Payne installed a Blau nav unit into his type 44 and had to grab 
the same exact signals.  I'd suggest dropping him a line, as he tends 
to loosely follow the list and only pop up once in a while these days.

His post about wiring the unit is probably in the archives if you 
creatively search for relevant keywords, like Blaupunkt(sp?), "Phil 
Payne" "reverse" etc.

Side note- the TrafficPro "guided tour" is hilarious- the photos, at 
least for the "out about towner" show you quite far off the road, 
probably because you're looking at the display ;-)

(Oh, and the interior is an A4, with the radio transplanted into the 
aircon vents :-)
