Hey

My cd player on my 05 tl messed up. and i was wondering if i can put the cd player from the newer tl's in there, because they also play mp3s. i would rather put the new one if its a direct fit, anyone done this before or will it fit?

Thanks

 

there are a few threads about this and I made one of them. Got some vague responses but it doesn't seem to be plug and play and doubt that anyone has done it

 

This one is the original deck my canadian 05 TL has (which is ITB3)

and i guess the canadian version of the 07/08 ones is this one

wat you guys thinkk? looks a lil different in the back connections

 

anyone with any info on thisssss?

 

is your 05 w/ or w/o Navi?

 

05-06 and 07-08 tl base cd player units are same p/n. hope that helps

 

you sure they are the same part number? Doesn't 07-08 play MP3s, and I know that 04-06 doesn't. How can they have the same part numbers?

 

I just checked on acuraoemparts.com and they do not have the same numbers.

 

To be plug and play you need a deck with the same code as yours. The code is on the tape deck door. It is like 1TB0, 1TB1 or something like that.

 

and it's the same code on the 07-08 and 04-06?

 

ok I think I recieved the wrong info. However to clear up the confusion there are 2 conectors that both year types share. However there is a third conector which is totally different. In addition the antenna lead has a different connector to the back of the radio as well. So 05-06 and 07-08 years cannot swap back and forth unless some serious, serious wiring is changed.

 

yeah thats what i thought....oh well guess ill just get another original one without mp3 support
