Continental HU install with M490 amp. Need help with wiring harness and LOC

Hey folks, I'm upgrading to the Conti headunit and was able to source the harness adapter for power, but not for the speakers. I know Bergville has a plug n play harness, but unfortunately they're out of stock until August.

Has anyone fabbed their own harness and LOC to connect the factory yellow Mini ISO 6 pin male plug to the Conti B block 10 pin female plug?

Im hoping I can rig something up to hold me over until August.I cant for the life of me find a 6 pin female plug adapter, and I also dont yet know what 4 channel LOC I can use that will fit and wont require needing RCA plugs.

OR if anyone has a spare harness lying around that I could buy off of them

For reference: I have an 01 Boxster with dash and door speakers, M490 HAES amp.

Update: I was able to source a harness from discountcarstereo.com. A few bucks more than Bergville but in stock (hopefully).

Did the discountcarstereo harness end up working?

(I'm looking to add the exact same head unit to a M490 equipped boxster and also would love to not wait until August)
