Radio Sockets Different on OEM Radios. What do to???

We have a 2005 Mini One that has a Casette Radio. I recently bought a CD player off a member here that I believe was taken out from a 2002 Mini.

When we took out the one that is already on the car to connect the one with the CD, we realised that the sockets for the radios are totall different.

Is there an adapter to make these work? Any place where I can get the socket for the CD one at least? so I can cut the wires and connect it to the socket

Here are the pictures of both radio sockets

the one with cd off a 2002

You are changing from a Wave radio to a Boost radio. You need this adapter: http://www.newministuff.com/new/shop...uctshow&id=113

You only need the CD prep adapter if you want to add a CD changer.
