I checked my extra R17 & R40 harnesses - I completely forgot about this when upgrading my 5-series Business Cassette to Business CD.

The earlier harnesses will have a 10-pin audio port, while the R40 harnesses have the 12-pin. The picture below clearly shows the difference:


R17 Connectors are found on MY2001-09/2002 Business CD Radios
R40 Connectors are found on 10/02+ Business CD Radios and Navigation.

Keep in mind that BMWs close to model year cutoffs may vary with electronics, (example: 07/02 model may have later R40 harness).

For those with pre 10/02 Radios, this harness would work with your application, this is sourced from an early model 5-series.

If you want to remove the DSP, you will need one of these harnesses to bring the signal to the rear:

MY10/02+ Radios w/ R40 Connector (includes Business CD and NAV models)
84.11.0.150.525 - CONNECTION CABLE CD CHANGER - $19.00 approx.

MY2000-MY09/02 Radios with R17 Connector (Business CD)
65.12.8.360.754 - CONNECTION CABLE CD CHANGER, 4210mm - $47.00 approx.

Both of these cables can be sourced through BMW or myself as well.

I'm not sure what conenction the MY2000-09/02 X5s with NAV use, maybe someone with that model year can assist?

Hope this helps!
