MKIV Eurovox wiring chart

[mikinoz]

Here is the wiring chart for the Eurovox head unit from the MKIV's

Anyone have the diagram for the CD stacker input pins??

Hi,
Does anyone know where i can get a harness adaptor for this? The Aus car seems to be different from European and US ones.

Thanks,
Ian

[IanJ]

Anyone? Sorry if this is elsewhere but I can't see it.

[mikinoz]

In the end I removed this unit from the car and replaced it with a $150 unit from Strathfield Car Radio that was 10 times better.

Sorry.

[IanJ]

Yeah I want to replace mine too, but getting an adaptor from the VW harness to ISO is proving difficult.

[mikinoz]

Sorry, I misunderstood you. In this instance I went to Jaycar and got a 16 pin connector, cut the cable on the new radio and on the VW loom and plugged them together.

[IanJ]

I'm not really a fan of chopping the loom but might have to.

cant remember a adapter on mine...? remember a lot of cutting and clamping of connectors though hope you find one so you dont have to cut!

[IanJ]

Thanks for the replies guys.....might need to get the chainsaw out over the weekend

I bought a 10 disc VW stacker off Oli last year but just checked in the box with the brackets etc, no wiring guide just how to install & connect. sorry...
If you send him a PM thou he may be able to help, pretty sure he works at a wreckers or mechanics etc.

For those of you like me who didn't want to chop the harness....

The eurovox harness has an adaptor which is buried in the centre console. This disconnects from a standard VW/Audi adaptor. I have used an old A3 (1999 TDi SE model) adaptor I had in the shed from a previous car in the UK. This connects up any standard ISO stereo.

Whats also cool about this is that the Eurovox uses a powered aerial adaptor, so you don't need to buy one of these (You can just use whatever your new headunit comes with!)

Now all i have to do is rewire the phone kit.

I'll look out links to the harness adaptor I am using later. But I think it's just the generic one for VAG cars.

It was that one.

Fantastic patience, compared to my chopping efforts!

[IanJ]

No patience really. I had the adaptor and the thought that there was no way VW would put a special loom in the car just for Aussie radios! So I untangled it from under the radio pocket.

Now I just need to find out which VW lead is the radio mute for the phone kit!

i just got an adaptor from repco when i did mine just plug and wire the marked wires to the headunit so simple and much easier then chopping wires as i thort at first would of been easy lol
