The set contains the insulation removal tools and the crimping tools for both antenna wires. Moreover, all the individual parts needed are in the kit. Only the zero-coded coupler (green) is needed. All other connection wires for the different Infotainment systems can be found in the Parts Catalog in table 035-XX. These adapter antenna wires must always be ordered separately depending on the vehicle type. All part numbers needed for reordering can be found in this table. The each compartment in the kit has a part number. The repair kit is based on the Wiring Harness Repair Set VAS1978B.
