yup!!

the gamma head unit has an extra socket in the back for line out and remote power (amp switch on wire etc), all you need is the correct adaptor to take your from the gamma (made by blaupunkt??) to normal line out and remote wire, but its is there so dont panic, if i can find a link ill post it here for the plug if not go onto ukmk4's site and ask on there someone will help no probs!!

yup... just feed them into the two libe out rca plugs and plug that into the rear of the stereo, depending on what boot changer lead you have you may need to feed your exisitng rca's (line in) fromt the boot changer into the rca line in's on this plug as it uses sort of half a socket of your line in... sounds weird but get the lead, pull your stereo out and youll see what i mean!!

We can get genuine Blaupunkt versions of these at Halfords for about £13, if that helps anyone :)
