needing some help !!! need to find a wiring chart or at least does anybody know what wiring colours do as i'm trying to fit a sony cd player and've already got the single din adapter bracket, also the end on the aerial is a different fitting compaired to regular radio's si there an adapter ?
Hmm.. not sure. I am assuming that you have a CD headunit?
You might be able to get help on the net somewhere, but you can certainly start at http://www.newbeetle.org
Hope that helps, and welcome to the forum!!
for anybody intrested i found the approapiate parts needed to replace the factory radio,
*Fusion single din stereo surround to suit 99' beetle onwards
*male ISO din wiring harness adapter (all colour coded for aftermarket radios and description written on each wire)
*european aerial plug adapter
found all these parts easily at autobarn when you ask the right questions
and i must say i've heard a lot of stereo setups and the factory speakers clarity blew away my expections ( wanted to fit some boston splits to it
but i'll hold off for now.
if anybody else is looking to change the radio i hope this helps
yes i did this my self and it is funny how good those factory speakers are when u put a good head unit in
have you ever seen what size speakers are accually in these beetles ? are they factory amplified ? rears sound like there low pass filtered
Think it is a high powered unit. Might be wrong.
The New NEW Beetles, like 2004 - 2005 have a different HU in them again, that is MP3 compatible.. nice too..
I am going to run an iPod and a sub soon.. iPod maybe this weekend!

Have you tried it Maya? Insert a data disc and see if it reads it.
Do you notice if the stereo is different in this black one to your white one?
The MP3 player will have like a digital readout type of thing, like radio stations coming up as words like FOX FM or TRIPLE J or something...
