Description
This car radio connection serves as an interface between the steering wheel remote control and a new audio system (even without navigation system) in certain BMW and Mini models. It works by adjusting the pin assignment of the steering wheel remote control to an ISO adapter format. This allows the OEM key signals to be interpreted by compatible retrofit or business audio systems. The installation is easy: The original connector is disconnected and this adapter is plugged in to connect the steering wheel remote control cabling to the new audio device. The button function is retained without changing the factory wiring harnesses. Typical applications include the conversion of audio systems into 3 series, 5 series and 7 series sedans, X5 models and mini versions of the R50, R53 and R52 models when the vehicle either has the business audio system or does not have a professional navigation system or a factory sound system.
