Default AUX-IN Make your own

I am trying to get all the parts in time to make my own AUX-IN cable. The only part I am having issues with are the connectors that go in the "C block". Anyone can guide me what kind of connectors they are? I know that they are tyco pins. Can anyone give me a part number so that i can look it up

From the video, it looks like they are pins. I went on the tyco website and tried to find what type I should buy. Nowhere on the forum gives you a part number for the pin. I am wondering if anyone knows what type of pin i should buy. Anyone has an idea

i bought the same pins at a local electronics store, got a bunch of them for like 2 bucks, same exact type that BMW uses, all i know is that their called tyco pins, and the guy knew exactly what i was looking for. check out your local electronics store.

BMW Part #61130005197 -They are a little over a dollar a piece at the dealer and they have always have them in stock when I've been in there for them. They do come with about 5 inches of black wire already attached to each connector.

If you happen to have an Audi dealer closer, part # 000 979 009 E is the same thing (they are yellow instead of black wire and actually have two connectors per piece of wire so you will only need to purchase two)

Hope this helps! Good luck on your install!
