I need some help , I purchased a Harman / Kardon drive and play and I need to know what cable adapter I need to power it from the 12 disc cd connector in the trunk ( C5 ) I already installed the screen in the ash tray and the controller in the cup holder and have it all connected to the Electronics Enclosure behind the passenger seat ?

how are you connecting it to the radio? they have built in wireless transmitters, or you can buy a wired FM modulator. Or are you using the rca wires? if that is the case you will need an adapter

Jimmy , I thought that I could connect it to the radio via the CD connection in the back , I didn't want to pull out the HU , do you have this system , does the wireless transmitter work OK , if thats the case I can always order one?

no, the wireless is horrible. I believe Pac-audio makes the adapter to let you use the cd changer/aux button.

either way, you are going to need to pull out the radio

The GM10-AUX adapter lets you use the existing COR-HAR harness that runs to the CD changer in the trunk. You do NOT have to pull the radio if you use this.
