Thunderbird likely hit it dead on - probably it carried power, left and right channels' audio, etc etc etc for the OEM setup. I cannot see that you'd be able to re-use it for anything, though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

****... I wonder what it was used for... Does my factory flip down have a harness??

I have a spare male 8-pin sitting in my garage if you need it. My stock Nissan HU AUX IN used that from a CD changer.

If anyone wants it, just pay shipping.

Sweet thanks a lot bro! That helped a lot. Now that I think about it, I guess the flip down monitor has its own harness. Ill need to find a converter for that.

My initial reaction to it the 1st time I opened this thead was that it looked like the DIN cable that ran the Kenwood 10-disc changer I used to have but that's a 13-pin, not an 8.
