Part # VUL100330

Made by Lucas for MGR, this harness has a BMW plug at one end for connecting in to the MGR loom, a set of standard ISO plugs for connecting into a Symphony (Alpine) head unit and a smaller set of three Mini-ISO plugs which also connect into the head unit. The blue one is for the CD changer, the yellow one is for the fitted telephone kit and the green one is for low-line navigation. At the far end of this harness is a single plug for connecting to a CD Changer in the glove box.

Rich - I've got the CD changer but no navigation unit and no telephone. Will the above harness VUL100330still be ok to convert the Harmony to a Symphony? - or should I use the much simpler one below?

The one you have a picture of there won't allow the use of steering wheel controls or speed related volume due to three missing pins/wires. If you can live with out those, it'll work fine.

That said, you can always populate the missing pins, check out this post - http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...21&postcount=1

The three missing cables are for steering wheel controls and telephone mute, easily added as Rich has said.

The speed related control and auto dimming of the display (when the sidelights are turned on) is via the K-Bus, which is wired through the green or blue mini ISO plug on the MGR loom, not so easy to retro fit.

Rich and Ray: The fleabay one (smalle pic) only has three multipin connectors whereas Rimmers' VUL100330 (main pic) has five. So I suspect the fleabay one won't:

a. Hook up to the CD changer
b. Hook up to Sat Nav
c. Hook up to steering wheel controls
d. Control telephone muting
e. Control auto speed/volume

Is all this correct? If so, it's not worth buying the fleabay one, better to get the proper VUL100330 instead.

Your opinions chaps?

Sony CD Changer, fitted with Harmony unit. "Connects2" lead adapter used to connect this to the Harmony head unit but I no longer have this lead.

(PS the part number for this is still needed. If it is found then I will amend this post to include it)

Did MGR supply the Sony stacker as an option?
