R52 radio install

Hey all
Installing a double din in my 2008 Mini Cooper s.
Had it in my 2009 S with no issues. Tried using the same wiring harness/adapter
And have no sound. Does the 08 have a amplifier? Anyone know if there is a different harness for the 08?
Thanks for your time
Regards Don

2008 R52 and 2009 S (R56) are different generations of MINI and have completely different electronics and wiring. The R52 has an amplifier only if it has the Harman Kardon system.

You can find wiring diagrams here: https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/

Thank you for your help.
Has just the boost system. If it was HK would it say somewhere?
Thanks again

HK would have markings on the speaker trim rings.
