Audio Help E46 1999

[insomnia5]

Hello, new on here so apologies if this has been covered before.

I have a 323 1999 which has Business radio cassette fitted, I came up with the idea of replacing this with a Business CD unit and bought one recently form a well know auction site. It arrived and its a 2004 very tidy unit. So a quick swop, no. It appears that my current unit has a ISO aerial connection (female on unit cable male at 90 deg) and the replacement one what I think is called FAKRA? (not sure if male/female)? I've searched the web for days trying to find a conversion adaptor or something but come up with nothing that looks like it will do the job. My current radio has another little connection, think this is a diversity connection, something to do with aerial again? Well that's me scuppered. Does anyone have any suggestions to where I can get something? Thank you

Morning Ian

That well known auction site will be able to help just search Iso to fakra connector there are plenty there

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the reply. I did that but, my current ISO is a 90deg fitting due to the moulded plastic parts in the bulkhead, no room for straight connector, so was looking for fackra 90deg to iso. Cant find anything. Wondered if anyone had found a solution or a adaptor?

Thanks Ian

There are 90 deg but tend to be male to male here are two from your favorite auction site

First is Female to Female ISO second 90deg Male to male

Thanks for the reply Greydog. I saw the top one but it wont fit due to the 90deg bend being required on the fakra connection. wondered if anyone out there had fitted this before and what worked?

Just searched 90deg Fakra antenna connector on Ebay and this came up

Have you tried any local audio specialists? They normally have work arounds
