Hey Kaleb,
I hooked up my Alpine CD changer this morning. For some reason, the
wiring was a little different than yours. But it;s pretty straight-forward
and for the most part only goes together one way.
It was a great feeling when I pushed MOD and the screen said CD1. ;-D
Howdy,
I finally have a working CD Changer for my '91 Mercedes (long story) -
it attaches to the amp tuner in the trunk so I need to mount it somewhere
back there. Under the hat-rack would be the best place, but other options
will be considered.
I'd like to minimize CD skipping if
really liked having the changer in that car. It was
the one Becker radio that I truly enjoyed - probably
because the changer gave me options beyond the crappy
FM section...
