This page has all you need to know on the wiring, now you just have to be good with solder and pot everything with hot glue so it doesn't break.  You can either cut open your VW cable and use that connector, or order a connector from the links on this page.  I did it and can verify that the wiring on this page is correct.  I bought a standard kenwood CD changer cable and cut open the VW connector.

Here's the changer cable.  Cut off one end and wire the phatbox connector to it using that diagram.  http://www.crutchfield.com/S-ln7Lcp7jpEd/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?search=kenwood+cd+changer&i=469KNWDIN

Just double check everything before you plug it in.  Fry at your own risk.

I got desperate and ended up buying a Kenwood music keg.  I will just sell the BMW Phatbox on ebay when I get everything up and running.

For those that are interested, it is easier to buy the cable in the UK.

"The cost of part required is £40.69, plus carriage (To USA)/Vat - Total £65.46.

If you would like to order, please call spares line on 01728 746500"
