Not as easy as described...

First, i bought the adapter, (VWA-3B) doesnt fit into the nav radio, looks like it is for an aftermarket unit, which one do i need...

Second, walmart doesnt sell the removal tools, i used a couple pampered chef pearing knives to get it out, wish i had the right tools for this....

Third, i think i have the 2 extra wires already in the harness... there is a total of 9 wires in there, does that sound right?

other questions...

Where does the changer plug in (or ipod adapter)

On the standard unit there is 2 connector looking objects next to the main harness, on the nav unit it is covered up....

What is the plug above the main harness (it is on both units)

I think that is it for now...
Thanks in advance!

 

Send this guy a Private msg. He know all about installing the nav!

These are some photos that we took when I installed, well bluecoupe actually did it, I just stood around and took the poor photos. The install was into a 2004 Coupe and the reverse and speed sensor wires from the amplifier were already attached to the plug.
Antenna adapter.

Antenna cable adapter (GRE40EU10)

blue coupe please check that what I have said about the photos is correct please,

 

Hey Dave, do you think I could have a career as a "hand model"?

 

Yeah, you can be the "before" model.

 

AWESOME!
where do i get the "GRE40EU10"

Exactly which wires are the 2 (the ones that the screwdriver is pointing to?) or if know where they are in the plug... like i said mine has 9 wires connected...
Thanks!
P.S. those are nice hands.... lol

 

Thought those hands looked familiar.

 

Yes, the two wires the screwdriver is pointing to. I modified my picture and identified the two wires and their colors. I believe the total wires required is eleven.
The instructions below, show the full installation. Bluecoupe supplied me with the two adapters and two wires. I purchased the antenna. The two wires if not in your plug already are special wires with inserts that plug into the socket that goes into the back of the unit. These are additional wires and do not seem to appear to be pre-installed on Crossfires that are not 2004 models. They are shown in the items required in the instructions.

Thank you! now i need to find someone that knows where to get the GRE40EU10 and the 2 wires, i have emailed becker with the part # for the wires on two occasions... nothing yet.... i googled the "GRE40EU10" and all it does is point me to this forum.... another part number maybe?

 

I have these two wires, bluecoupe got them for me but as they were already installed I did not need them, you can have them.

 

Thanks!

You have the nav unit, but what other parts do you have?
PM received.

 

walmart does sell the tools. I bought two sets in two days at two different walmarts....


two two two...I lost one of them so I had to buy another.

 

I have the nav unit, the cable adapter (pic 1), the gps ant is not here yet....

i need the short plug adapter you have in pic 2 and the two individual wires that you have....


i looked all over the audio section, found a kit with orange tool to take the dash off, found a dvd that makes you install like a pro, found kits to change factory units to aftermarket (no tools inside and def not $5.00, so please point me in the right direction, i went to a upgraded wal-mart and a super walmart... saw nothing....

thanks guys for all the help
appreciate it!

 

I picked up the ant cable GRE40EU10 at a local auto audio shop. The removal keys can be found on e-bay for about $5. One forum member had Becker mail him a pair for free!

 

I went to the audio section at two different walmarts here in CA. Both had them hanging right next to the playing stereos....$3.50 each for a set. Sorry you cant find them.

 

The crutchfield part # is 12040VW21

so all parts are on the way except... the 2 wires.....


Were you able to locate the 2 wires i need to add?
Let me know how to pay you for them... i would like to put this in early next week...
thanks
chris

 

Sorry I got in on this late, you could have come over and borrowed my removal tools.

 

LOOK HERE FOR LOCATION OF TWO WIRES
