Missing right angle adaptor for tuner module - 05/02/2006 13:00
Hi,
I have a Mark 2 empeg and an original tuner module. I've had my empeg installed for some time in my Peugeot 205 1.9 GTi but I haven't gotten around to installing the tuner module.
Upon looking at a few comments here it seems apparent that I am missing a right-angle adaptor for the tuner module.
Is there any way I could obtain a replacement adaptor?
TIA.

You don't say where you are, those adaptors cost peanuts in Europe, but from other threads it seems that you're fleeced in the U.S.!

It's a standard electronics shop part -- you could go hunting for one locally, or try and find it at digikey.com.
If you're near Toronto, they're a stock item at Supremetronic on Queen St.W.

This LOOKS like the correct thing, but I'm not certain.

I'm all the way over in New Zealand :-)
I purchased one of these:

Yeah, that one is the opposite of what you need. It is usually used in combination with the one that you need, thereby providing a sharp 90-degree turn for a "regular" antenna cable. My wife's Honda Civic needed that combo for the factory radio.

The one you do need is on the same site, though, Catalog number PA2048.

I went into JayCar today and picked up the right-angle adaptor and I now have an awesome working tuner (well minus the sigkills of 3.0A11 that is).
Thanks for your help :-)
