I'm doing the TNR Nav/XM and CD changer under the rear seat upgrade. Everythings gone fine so far except the cd harness is really complicated and NO instructions. I've installed the XM tuner, mounted the CD and routed all the cables. Now, the CD cable has multiple connectors and it appears I connect their 24 female pin connector to the factory 24 male connector and the same with the other connector. Then when I match up the other logical connectors with the XM cable it looks right (leaves me with the appropriate connectors to plug in rear of the NAV. Except I end up with one extra connector but it looks like just a duplucate off the other connection (maybe for a 2nd unit????). Also, I guess I still have to change the two wires in the connector 24 pin connector for the XM but in the factory connector or the new interfaced 24 pin connector with the CD or does it matter??? I'm going to call support first thing in the morning but with the holiday who knows if they're open. Any help would be appreciated. Changer is a SCD-G7i

Hey Vegas,
I'm working on my install right now. No instructions either. How did you ultimately wire it together? Anny help would be appreciated. Bevo |
Small world Vegas. I am in the same boat you are. I Emailed the Vendor for Install instructions on the same unit but have not heard back yet. I'll share if I hear anything. Please do the same.

MD,
Wire it up just like Vegas' picture. Make sure to complete the 4 way connectors. The other 9 pin male is a spare. I started with the wiring for TNR, then did XM, and finally the CD changer. Works like a champ. Now I only have to figure out how to bundle all of the extra wires in the small space behind the radio. Bevo |
You read my mind! looks like its time to get creative with the zip ties!

Sorry guys, I'm on a project of my own & just now got to your posts. That IS an extra connector for ANOTHER optional unit if you can imagine another one.

Okay guys, don't leave us hanging. Did you get them installed & running? Nice, aren't they.

Up and running and works like a champ.OBTW the GPS antenna does not have to be modified. There is a recessed bolt about 4 inches to the right of where Klaus installed his. That is the stock mounting position. Reception using this mount point is just dandy. However, Vegas' and Klaus' mount points will probably have greater GPS visibility in dense/crowded areas. Just thought I'd let you guys know that GPS antenna modifications are optional.

Thanks for the info Bevo. Glad you like it & install went okay. Can you believe that much work just to put a damn radio in??
|
Much more work than I thought. I'm getting to old for this kinda stuff. The wife wasn't happy about the dash being in pieces in the living room either.

Nirvana acheived! I have the XM, Changer, Nav install done. It is wonderful to have it done and working... the only thing is I seem to have a Screw left over..... Doh!
