Aaron from Vast tuning made a batch of awd ones and I grabbed it (was expensive but the dollar was a bit better then). Preferred to pay a bit extra and not have to mess around too much.
Ah, gotcha. it's really nice. well worth paying for.

Agreed.

@AshDVS I have added the measurements to your thread ? thought about doing it before but saw that 1998 is meant to be different
a month later
Made a cable to switch between aux and CD changer. Basically just separates the audio left and right from the CD change cable to a 6 pole switch.
The issue was that i couldn't get the semi proprietary female and male sockets and used regular 8 pins instead.
Unfortunately the hackjob sockets are a bit finicky so I don't think it'll hold together too well with actual driving. I also made the cable a few cms shorter than ideal length?
However at the moment it works well and the switch instantly switches between CD and aux. the sound is the best auxiliary input sound I've heard for the stock setup(I've hard wired into sc805 in other car, used tape ad peters etc.).
Will I had something very similar in mind but I haven't got around to making it yet I think I got these plugs from Altronics i thought they were the correct type or would do lol.
Well done you need to knock up few and sell them on here.?

Yeah so they fit - kind of. The male side is modified easily but the female side needs the ground/ring to be larger. Most the reliability issue is really the poor quality of stuff from jaycar and altronics tbh
Although it's all Alpine stuff it's still going to be hard to get old Alpine stuff too I'd imagine....
I held on to one or two of those cables for years but everyone went digital/MP3 or new HU and that guy that converts the old HUs to run inputs whoever he is/was I never knew only heard about it.
Good luck!
