Hey Guys!

I currently have a Rockford Fosgate RFX 9020M deck in my boat, I have a chance to pick up a good deal on the "next model" up, its the RFX 9220, basically the same deck, except with a wireless remote, MP3 capability and an extra set of RCA jacks [for Sat. radio, etc] The other advantage is the 9220 will also accept my current 8 disc CD changer [8620] and my wired remote [RFXMR1] which I have already mounted near the swim platform.

My Problem is the fella selling the deck doesn't have the 16 pin Molex connector/wiring that comes out of the back of the deck [this is the plastic piece that has the wires for the "power", "antenae" , "speakers" etc]

I looked at my current deck [9020] and it "appears?" they use the same connector, the only difference I can see is that the newer model has 2 extra wires [one for a "dimmer", and one for a "cell phone mute"] I can live without either one of these options if need be.

My questions are: Can I just hook up my existing harness to the newer deck? if not, does anyone make a "universal" wiring harness or "kit" where I could make up my own harness?, the fella who is selling the head unit claims that it was just TOO big of a pain in the butt to remove all the wires from inside the car, so, he removed the deck and mounting hardware, and sold the car. It would seem to me that this isn't an uncommon occurance, so, what is the easiest way to fix this problem?

Thanks for the help guys!, Its appreciated!

Michael

from what i knw of, with decks made by the same company (and sometimes other comparable companies) the harness' are mostly the same. so just plugging in the new unit to the old harness shouldnt give u any problems. plus those two addtional lines are for bluetooth capability, and most of the time u would have to get and additional adapter for that which is a waste of time (if u ask me) but it shouldnt be a problem just pluggin in the new unit.
hope this helps, good luck!
