Have I got the wrong new head unit?

Post by welshiedan »

Hi all,

I'm hoping you can confirm whether I'm an idiot and have bought the wrong new head unit for my 2017 ex-bg maxi van.
I got the Eonon VWA12S but the quadlock doesn't fit from the old unit to the new - the power leads don't seem to match.

Have I made a silly mistake?

If it's the same shape bezel, it will fit the hole in the dash, I believe that you just need an adapter block for the wiring

You will need a 40 Pin to 52 Pin Quad lock Adaptor.

That's amazing! Thanks Gary

I knew there'd be an adaptor but hours of Google did not help - should have come here first

Just wanted to come back to this post and say that I got the cable and it's working great.

Not just comes the work of sorting out the aerials, the GPS, replacing the USB port in the coin tray cos that's stopped working, figuring out where to put the new mic...

Don't use the external mic
