[QUOTE="paultantk, post: 14864, member: 6665"] Does anyone know the difference between these two radio displays? Apparently both are found in pre-facelift E39s... my CKD 520i comes with the one on top, and I took it out to have a look at who manufactured it and it says Philips.[IMG]http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/3910/20080227103522imgyh8.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/3180/94d71xc2.jpg[/IMG]I recently bought a CD53 single slot front dash CD player from the facelifted E39, but also purchased the plug converter ( [URL="http://www.europeanautosource.com/product_info.php?products_id=291"]http://www.europeanautosource.com/product_info.php?products_id=291[/URL] ).Once installed, everything works fine physically (it all connects together fine and the CD player is properly powered and the eject button works etc), but the CD player doesn't seem to communicate with the display. It doesn't seem to know that a CD player is connected, and defaults to functioning as a clock only.Are there any differences between the two displays units? Perhaps it only works with the one on the bottom? [/QUOTE]
