I was hoping you'd opt for the Bergvillfx cable to be the pioneer for all of us MOST users.


Still researching the cable as I find the cost to seem a bit high. Mercedes and BMW have the same problem and on their forums a few have used the aliexpress cable and have had it work. Still waiting for a reply to see if they have one with the right connectors for our cars.

If you are talking about the eLongate kit we've ordered one a few weeks ago. 2CH input only however, good for a carpc or a ipad set-up. Not sure if this will work for your 4CH deck? Unless you don't care about the F/R fading then it should be fine.

Mate here got it in hands on the unit, goes in his 987 to try the infotain we're putting together atm. That infotain's got digital 5.1 Surround so fading can be adjusted by software

ps; pay attention when shopping, seen 2 other MOST converters locally but FM modulators instead. No exp with this kit, no idea what it is in fact, but I'm sure we don't want that.

That's the one we end up getting at the end...
