CD changer digital to analog cable

I have 2001 X5 with DSP/NAV. It's the version with the coaxial cable coming straight from the CD changer pluging into the DSP amp. I just disabled my DSP amp thus I need a digital to analog cable that goes straight from CD changer pluging into the radio tuner behind the battery.

I asked Tom G and he directed me to a audio cable with 12 pins (pluging in at the radio tuner) and 6 pins (at the CD changer). It has three cables that goes into appropriate pin at the radio tuner end:

2 = brown/white
8 = red/white
9 = blue/white

This is the link to the 12 pins cable:

Unfortunately, I need the audio cable with 10 pins. This is the link:
http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...roducts_id=380

My question is are both cables the same, except the different pin numbers at the radio tuner end? If this is the case, I can get some plugs from my old computer, modify it and plug them in because in reality there are only three pins that actually being used out of the 10 pins plug. I just don't want to return this cable to Tom and pay another $16 for shipping. Man, it would have been great if Tom pointed me to the right source the first time. Does anybody here have this information?

Justin.

Got it. Found the pins and use some modified connectors from my old computer to plug in. Works great .
