CD Changer

Do our cars have existing CD changer controls for a 6 CD changer?

Thanks.

You can do it manually by swapping two of the pins either in the changer or in the cable.

Most all of our cars have the data cable run to the factory CD canger location. Dig around in the trunk and see if you can find it. I used to have a changer a few years back, it became useless to be since I always wanted to play that 7th CD

I have a 6 disc Alpine changer attached to the stock Bose head unit. You just need a connector wire to hook them up. I think it was like $30 at Circuit City.

I have the OEM (Acura Changer) which is made by Alpine. The M-bus changer (that you've linked to eBay) will work. You'll need to purchase the cable that runs from the changer to the rear of the head unit. I got my cable (new) from eBay for $20.00.

Alpine 6 CD changer works great. Even when my Bose CD player was not functioning I could use the CD changer. Go to Circuit City, they can help you out with that.
