Retrofitting HK to base Polestar 2 - Marky mark - 11-01-2025

In the process of repairing a Polestar 2, which had a small electrical fire to the right quarter in the boot area I found myself upgrading to HK setup.  I purchase a loom which came from a higher spec car which had the Harman Kardon, setup. I've fitted the additional rear speakers, sub and the amp then modified the wiring to suit and changed to the high performance configuration in Orbit but I find myself with no audio at all. The radio seems to work fine and its not reporting any issues in the diagnostic. I've confirmed I have power to the amp and I can see one of the most fibre optics illuminated. 
I'm I missing some thing with the reconfiguration or am i likely looking at a potential radio issue?

Probably the same as standard audio in Volvo compared to HK. Speaker wires need to be changed in the connector.
