a CD Changer unit?
I am installing DAB at the mo, but the BUS cable needs to fit into the break out box, and the BUS cable for the CD changer needs to fit into the DAB unit, trouble is, the changer is a factory fit, and we can't take the cable out, so I need one!! Anyone got any ideas, I have searched on the net for this cable, but nothing, and don't really want to buy a new CD changer just to get the cable!! lol

Cheers

Well, we have cut off both ends of the connectors, and have about a metre, but there are many fine wires inside the cable, and we're not sure if they can be soldered. The DAB unit is attached directly to the side of the CD changer box, so length isn't an issue. I will need another cable if we can't 'splice' the 2 ends together.

Thanks for that Lead , I will order it, although we managed to 'splice' the exsisting cable back together and it works! So the CD changer and DAB now work fine, plus the aerial works fine fitted internally! (Mongoose did 99.9% of the work though )
