Leave the old cable and put the new true the tunnel console; piece of
cake. One hour labor.
Then you can afterwards decide witch of them you prefer most.

Hello Jan,
First enjoy your time in the Bungalow and have a Happy and Healthy 2008!
I believe that my CD charger cables goes on the left hand side of the
car and not through the tunne console, but I may be wrong. In the
eantime I decided to buy a new Kenwood radio and disc charger so I can
use the old cable.
It is a pity because I really like the Becker Mexico and I have it
already about 12 years first being installed in my first 280 SE. On the
other hand I don't want to go through the hassle of pulling new
cables.
Best regards,
Egon
