Aftermarket nav retofit Question HELP PLEASE!

Ok, so i used the search features and pretty much everyone said that i need a CAN Bus Adapter and a CAN Bus Insertion Harness. So I go to my local dealer and order the parts. Next day I get a call and the dealer says that the CAN Bus Adapter is discontinued. I was like what the hell. So now my question is does anyone know were I can get the CAN Bus adapter and Insertion Harness other than the dealer?

RE: Aftermarket nav retofit Question HELP PLEASE!

Which dealer was that? And which part number did you give him for the CAN-Bus adapter?

As alternatives, try these:

Q654 0011
1638200087

Let's check availability:

ADAPTER
EUR 89.71
The part is available.

Well, I went to claridges in fremont and autobahn in Belmont and both dealers said the same thing. The CAN BUS adapter is now discontinued and the insertion harness is on back order. So now I have come to the conclusion on purchasing a speed pulse generator for the VSS signal. If anyones has any other solution please let me know. Thanks!
