also, the installation of that piece would be almost identical to jeff's input. and, with jeff's, you get to keep use of your changer.
so, yeah, it'd be a wee bit more expensive, and take you about five more minutes for the install, but i'm going to advocate going with jeff's piece.

I mis-read your first post.
This is the Blitz-Safe adapter, and it works great.
Get it.

In order to get the adapter plugged into the 13-pin DIN cable, and route it through the area behind the seat, you need to "Modify" the rear cubby hole. Here is a view of the cable and the rear of the cubby-hole in the roadster.

I cut a small hole in the top corner of the back of the cubby hole for the connector. This material is not plastic, but a type of thin fiber-board like material. It cut easily with a hobby knife.

I ran the yellow 13-pin female adapter end through this hole from the inside of the cubby hole behind the seat. it fit snug in the hole. Then I plugged the male cable into the adapter.

I plugged a RCA male to 1/8" stereo mini plug adapter cable into the RCA females of the adapter. I replaced the cubby-hole door, and ran this plug out on the passenger seat.

JusTT a Girl,
I bought one of those connectors for my TT and never used it.
I sell it to you, just let me know.
And it will do exaclty what you want.
I would suggest replacing the Head unit, I know that you dont want to, I didn't either, but I ended up replacing it.
I think the bose factory Head unit sucks.
It was much easier than I thought and my system sound 1000 times better, with much more features!![Smile](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
