Can gateway confusion, help please!
« on: February 18, 2013, 06:16:10 pm »
Hi, I know your probably sick of the amount of threads there must be about it, but,  I've just bought a stereo and need a can gateway adapter, but don't really understand other posts.

Other posts seem to tell me I need either a L and above or S and above, so a bit of confusion there..

Also, the one that I did find that said it would be fine ended in AA so that isn't above S or L, so more confusion there..

 

The person who I bought the stereo off said I only need to buy the adapter and it doesn't need to be coded, but other places said it does so does it? Can anybody with VCDS do it?

 

Can anybody find me the cheapest of ebay that will work please?
