If it’s for the original radio, then I have one, but it might be in the container and I can’t get to it before tomorrow, but I will look in the workshop, just in case I have already brought it back?

				No it’s the ribbon one so I can fit an aftermarket head unit and still keep the amp running ..I can’t be assed to run all new speaker cables direct to the head unit as its a ball ache ..
They must sell them in the states surely ..you used to be able to get them from Halfords but they just look at you like you’ve asked them for some moon dust

It connects to these then you connect it to the head unit harness ..

				Got one must have tried 10 different places and the last place I tried had 1 in a storage box that hadn’t been looked in for about 15 years 



another rare part then for the cars if you want to fit and aftermarket head unit ..

I do believe it's the one I have, but just didn't explain it well!
not that it's needed now
