Which Phatbox for a Becker Traffic Pro?
« on: September 19, 2007, 02:43:05 am »
I have an '06 Chrysler Crossfire - basically a Mercedes Benz - the factory CD/Nav unit is the same as the Becker Traffic Pro - it has the pinouts for a cd-changer - I understand that with the right cable I can hook up the phatbox to the Traffic Pro.

So the question is - is there only one "version" that will work (Silver-LE for example)?

Or will all the units from a certain point on work?

thanks for any advice and direction...

Sorry about the late reply...basically any PB will work with the TP with the TP cable from Phatnoise...just be sure you have the right connector on the back...Becker/HK made a lot of custom-connector units for various auto-makers.

Once you have the cable, it's a simple matter of new firmware update.

I've used an original Red beta box, a LE, and an Audi/VW Phatbox with my TP 4773.

Thanks for the clarification - didn't want to get a box that wouldn't be happy!

Now I just have to track down a cable for the TP...

thanks again for the info
