Phatbox cable

Post by lushman » Tue Apr 28, 2009 8:03 pm

Hi Folks,
I have recently acquired a phatbox from the US. I have a RNS-D unit fitted which has a round 13pin connector going to the cd multi changer. The interface lead that comes with the phatbox has round 8 pin connector. Is there a cable that I can plug between these two. I have searched the posts and the closest I got was with someone soldering (Not for me as I am useless)
Any help in the right direction would be great.

If worst comes to the worst which cable from Ebay do I need to pug into the head unit and run it through the car? There appears to be different plugs for the head units (Or maybe I am stupid)

Thanks in advance

Paul

Update, I think I might have sourced the genuine cable through my local Audi!

Is that the OEM Phatbox model? What's the model number if you don't mind...?

Hi Johnny, Thats the cable. You should stick in the checkout. P+P is crazy. I have bought one off Ebay from the US at half the price.
Thanks Paul

mbelle,

This is where I bought the cable from and received it last Friday

I think the part number is 000-051-592A

Just waiting on my new UK cradle from the stealers!
