jimmy 313 Report post Posted February 5, 2017 Hi Steve, You need to pull your head unit out and see if you have the extra fly lead tapped up on your loom, if so its just a case of plugging in and aux cable . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmy 313 Report post Posted February 6, 2017 yes its taped onto existing loom, you may well get more reply's on the e39 page as there will be a few that have done the same job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmy 313 Report post Posted April 6, 2017 It looks like the one to me, check wire colours and see if same colour terminates in the white plug on the rear of the radio head unit, 99% thats the right cable as all the ones I have checked have never had the wires in so for yours to have it for me means its the aux cable. 1 530s-steve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
