    RNS-E Adapter Verification.

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm still trying to find what adapters I need for my RNS-E I am purchasing. I have Non-Bose and not sure if I need all 3 of these connectors for my unit to work properly?

    Radio antenna adapter with diversity [50 ohm to FAKRA


    GPS antenna with FAKRA connector


    Symphony II to RNS-E adapter without BOSE


    I searched some OLD AZ threads but still not 100% clear of exactly what adapaters I need. Thanks!

    Those are all correct.

    I would recommend if u have a roof antenna to run the FAKRA cable to that rather than having an SMD or ISO GPS antenna that is aftermarket. I through experience have found it to be a touch less accurate but it will work.

    I've had no prob with mine, plus I wasn't looking forward to running the wire all the way to the back of the car.

    OP I believe there's a harness on the classified section.

    Thanks for checking, unfortunately the Radio antenna adapter with diversity [50 ohm to FAKRA] is out of stock, so I guess my unit won't be going in all at once.
