Now then boys and girls, need your expert advice!

Can i put my Sony head unit in my Octy Vrs without changing 6changer if so how. Cheers Chaps!

:confused:

Yes you can, but don't expect the changer to work, because it won't

Sorry, but the answer is no - different ICE maunfacturers use different connections which would make virtually impossible to connect the two together without some fancy electrical interface.

Tripled... No is and will remain the answer unfortunately.

I expect it would be no more than a weekend project for someone with a protocol analyzer and PIC burner. I haven't looked into it yet, but if the electrical interface on both ends isn't much more complicated than a low speed (clocked?) serial line then it would be possible to blow a chip, with driver components on veroboard for

Anyway, when I come to change my HU.......

... you'll be just like the rest of us and buy a new one

I don't want something too flash or with too many fiddly small buttons.

That'll be a Blaupunkt then. www.bluespot.co.uk

Or that rather nice one that Monkey Boy (?) has.

I'm going to buck a trend here, just for a change

Whilst browsing round Halfords the other day, I noticed they do an adaptor to get the standard VAG changer to work with Sony head units. About

It would be nice if you can do this with a Panasonic HU

...eerrrr.....may I enquire what happened to the Blaupunkt DAB53 you just recently installed?

Geoff, looked like a box of tricks which sat between the standard loom and plugged into the Sony HU BusAudio socket

Adrioan, I'm fitting it tomorrow along with a few other sundry bits
