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.

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.
