Evening guys,

Round pin I believe :) You could always look at yours in the boot, I mean it's even unplugged.....:gmc: (assuming you are talkig about the TV tuner ;))

Round pin plugs straight in, flat pin requires an adaptor. Some of the flat pin ones allow extra features, if you add wiring, like Bluetooth phone integration.

Oh, and be careful if you are thinking of buying one. The power amp stage in them is appalling and fails very regularly.

Cheers Duncan, I was sure it was the round pin but just wanted confirmation :)

Thanks for the heads up, I have been taking to Baris hes a member on here somewhere about my widescreen TV fault, he can now convert the analogue units to digital, he now runs www.carphonics.co.uk and works on the BM24 & 54's

I already have a 24 fitted and was wondering if the difference I would get from a 54 would be worth the upgrade ?
