Default Need some advice for a purchase

Greetings everyone. I need a bit of help from a guy who knows a little something about these things.
Basically, I have an X300 Jaguar that doesn't have a radio on it. I sold the older one and bought a newer one. but it has two old cables - an amplifier and a cable to connect my CD boxes. I've attached a photo if you need clarification.
Basically, the cables don't fit the newer radio that I bought. Can anyone suggest a place where I could buy an intermediate for those cables? I can't really use my radio without it.
Cheers.

To fit a new radio with the separate amp you need to buy from incartec
https://incartec.co.uk

1 x JAGUAR XJ8 XK8 Premium Sound Amplifier interface - (20-277)
https://incartec.co.uk/product/JAGUA...fier-interface

1 x Jaguar XJ6, XJ12 Car Audio Facia - (50-158)
https://incartec.co.uk/product/Jagua...ar-Audio-Facia

Ignore it says XJ8, that is their typo, it does work as I had one before reinstalling OEM radio.

Sadly the in the boot cd changer will not work with any new radio.

Hey, sorry for the long response time. I checked out the incartec website and got the stuff ordered. It actually worked!
Thanks a bunch!

I'm finally considering an upgrade of my original radio head unit, since it has been acting up a lot lately. I'll hate to see the recently replaced CD changer lost, but there are other great advantages to consider. That 20-277 unit looks magical and will probably be worth the cost to avoid the trouble of a lot of wire cutting and splicing. Not to mention the adjustable output. Very cool.

One thing I don't fully understand is the red and black ISO connectors. Will I connect the aftermarket radio plug's free wires into the appropriate holes on the ISO connectors?

Hi Richard, yes the red and black connect to your new radio.
