Symphony II+ to be used as aftermarket headunit; Is it Possible?

[Fermiumhalo]

Hey guys, I have a Symphony II+ from my old 07 A4 and since its just laying around the house I figured I could use it in another car. Is it possible? The candidate is my 90 Corrado, does anyone have a harness that I could plug into the unit?? I see the wiring diagram is on top of the unit however does anyone have a easy to read diagram showing what goes where? Thanks in advance [:D]

Spoke to Nick at Kufatec and after he scratched his head about 4 times he left me with no hope. [=(] Sounded like you have to run power to the antenna and the unit connects to the dash as well. Nightmare install to say the least. If anyone knows of a way to use this unit as a slave cd player with Aux thats all I would need.

Yes you can with the following provisos, It will:
- Turn itself off 30 minutes after it is switched on
- Not switch on/off when you use use your ignition key
- Not have night time illumination.

You could probably enable the above functions using a canbus emulator but I can't help you with that as I have never used one. The rest will function and yes you'll need an antenna adapter but that's no big deal.

If it were me, I'd sell it in the classifieds and buy an aftermarket h/u with the proceeds.

Since its just laying around your house, donate it to me :) I am local and can even pick it up. LOL!

In all honesty, as already posted put it in the classifieds and buy something aftermarket.
