Hi
I have recently purchased a new Volkswagen Beta Cassette Player for my 1992 VW Polo. But it doesnt work. I took the first cassette player back to my local retailer so they exchanged it for this unit. It is brand new and works in my fathers 1997 Passet but not in my 1992 Polo. I need this unit to work soon in my vechicle.Can anyone give me any advice?

Regards,
Mike Byrne

yeah, you might need some coversion cables so that the power feed etc is going to the right place (newer cars all have standard cabling layouts, but it took til the mid 90s til it was all sorted). i needed one for my sony headunit after (temporarily

) junking the blaupunkt nonsense that was standard fit.

about a tenner from halfords, or if you're spawny like you could make one for probably two quid of parts from maplins.
