RNS-E with Bose Wiring

Post by MeTsU » Tue Apr 17, 2018 6:10 pm

Hi everyone,

So the previous of the RS cut wiring to install an aftermarket radio, instead of using an adapter. :rant: My RS came with the RNS-E and Bose setup - not sure what other information one might require.

Is there anyone who possibly could share the exact wiring colour to pin, either via text or photos? I haven't been successful in decoding the information from our "resource centre". Also, nearly all of the info I've been able to find has been related around retrofitting the RNS-E to replace a RNS-D for e.g.

I would greatly appreciate it and would share some virtual :beerchug: with anyone that could help. I was able to find the following from an eBay sale - it might help a little bit:

Thanks, Matteo.

I had a quick look at the electrical diagrams. All the connections and wire colours seem to be on there. If you need the part numbers for the connectors and pins, try here:

Thanks Shoppinit, I think we should be good on the connectors and pins, I ordered some repair wires to be used if necessary.

I think I'm concerned that I'm not getting the right view of the electrical diagrams. Will PM you.
