Technical CD Auto Changer

[Stuart_89]

i got my stilo a few weeks ago and i understand alot of them have cd changers in them, i was hoping mine did but it hasn't, it says in the handbook that you can get one installed at a dealership, has any one done this, how much will it cost?

dont bother

its a blaukpunt 5 disc single din unit that goes in your upper glovebox and is controlled by the original head unit which may need to be told to accept the cd change by an examiner

point is, these are prone to trouble and the costs from a dealer are extortiante, theres usually some on ebay but these get snapped up quite quickly as they do tend 2 break

you will also need to get a new interior for the upper glovebox to accomodate this cd change adding to hassle and cost

There's an MP3 player for ~100 EUR that connects to CD changer input on factory device. You put USB flashes or SD memory cards in it, and control everything through the factory device, as normal CD changer - although it's a lot smaller and you can put a lot more music. I'm in process getting one.

that mp3 player interface is a great idea, i will probably get one of those instead, how do i buy one, on the link you gave i cant find any purchase options.

Think i'm going to be selling my Stilo to my parents in a couple of weeks, that has got a Cd player in that i had fit when i bought it (complete with glovebox etc) and hasn't had a lot of use - as they won't use Cd it will probably be removed and for sale if your interested!
