Converting a Motorola Astro Plus Dash to a Remote

[hawkspringsfire]

I have a Motorola Astro Plus that I am wanting to convert it into a remote mount radio. I know you need to interconnect board and I think that I have it. Pictured below. Here are a couple of questions that I have.

1- Is this the right board that I need to convert it into a remote mount radio?

2- Is there anything else that I need besides the board and cable? Will the regular remote mount cable work or do I need something special?

3- In the software where I need to change the radio head...do I do it before or after I convert it into a remote version? Or do I do it to the codeplug then download the new codeplug?

That board should work.

There is no reprogramming needed just the remote cable and remote head back piece.

I have used an an old Analog Spectra remote kit on a Astro Spectra and it worked great.
