I did this because I could not figure out a clean way to get to the Fiber behind the brake booster…

So basically which set/configuration of MOST cables I use depends on what I already have or don't have installed, and don't waste time getting behind the brake booster if you don't have to

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

This is NOT an urgent question, but I'm in the middle of installing the XM satellite (i.e. for Cayenne) unit I purchased from sponsor Suncoast Motorsports. Having previously installed Tooki the other day, XM install has been easy enough so far, mostly following K-Man S's Dension and navigation installation articles. Based on all the cables that came in the package, it seems like it is really meant to be plug-and-play...obtaining power was easy, after finding the little plug on the side meant to power the CD changer. So here is my question: This photo shows one of the sets of MOST fiberoptic cables that came with the kit, someone actually did the work and created the MOST "triangle" to connect both the XM and navigation units: The problem is, to use it, I have to replace the MOST cable and connection back behind the round silver (brake assist tank?)...I have small hands but....that's tight! Is there an easy way to unplug the existing MOST cable and replace it? I already broke some plastic holder behind there trying to get to it . Of course, now I'm thinking it will just take 5 minutes to just punch out the little blue tabs and create the MOST "triangle" myself. But I was just thinking that if they went through the trouble of sending this cable, there must be an easy way to use it....

POST 2Original post

If you have a factory cd changer, you simply unplug the most cable from the changer & plug it into the factory cable you show. The remaining connectors install into the changer & XM unit.

POST 3Original post

For my Dension installation I used the MOST connections to the amplifier. Its right there and easy to get to. Note: I do not have the CD changer, only the Head unit and Bose Amp before installing the Dension. I did this because I could not figure out a clean way to get to the Fiber behind the brake booster… Good luck

POST 4Original post

I broke the same adapter behind the brake booster and didn't sweat it. That is the one that is recommended in the TSBs on installing the CD Changer or Nav package.

POST 5Original post

Ok thanks everyone. So basically which set/configuration of MOST cables I use depends on what I already have or don't have installed, and don't waste time getting behind the brake booster if you don't have to All the ends of the cable I posted above were "male" and I just realized my XM kit came with one "female" end. So it is very easy to swap out the most connectors and set it up whatever way you want.

POST 6Original post

Do you happen to have a pictures of where the MOST cable plugs in to the BOSE amp? I'm doing this install this weekend. Thanks. G.
