[s-cars] Concert II In '95.5 S6 Avant

[Michael Lardizabal]

Tom-

One of my 95.5 Avant's had a Concert II HU w/o the Canbus and it worked ok. Only drawbacks are :
-after 1 hr of runtime it would shut off. Turning it back on again and you're good for another hour.

- preset station lights didn't light up, but all other lights did.

Canbus adapters show up on German Ebay but are very expensive...IIRC, close to 300.00 USD.

I'm anticipating returning to the world of S-cars in a couple of weeks. The
intended ride is a lo mileage mostly stock Silver Avant. It has the stock
radio. I know there has been discussion here and elsewhere of replacing the
wide DIN unit with a Concert II. One of the problems mentioned is that it
requires a CAN-bus adapter to be fully operational (lights, etc.) This being
said I've never seen particulars on what specific CAN-bus adapter or a
source for it. I'd like to stick with an OEM head unit and hopefully one
that will swallow a CD. (Having a convenient choice of music would please my
wife and daughter to no end!) Eventually I'd like to adapt iPhone/iPod as
well. Any help would be appreciated. TIA Tom Heitzman
