Need To Replace Factory Stacker

[R-SPEC]

first off i have an r34 which had 1 of them pop up screens. ive disconnected the tv + its control unit from everything.

now for the time being i wanted to use the factory cd changer which works through the stock casette/radio unit. but it keeps switching cd's and doesnt play any of em.

im thinking the changer has had it so i wanna replace it. is it as simple as buying another 1 and plugging it in? preferably 1 that plays mp3's

any suggestions?

thanks

got an Ipod? I can do that side of things easier. otherwise its a real pain to fix that. it will involve using normal GTT bits.

havent got an ipod. wouldnt another changer work?

[Chris Rogers]

no. the one you have is a clarion OE item. speaks N bus. the aftermarket versions speak Cbus and CEnet both of which are no where near what you have and they will not connect to what you have either.

ah i see

so if i get an ipod could i hook it up somewhere through the stereo speakers?

[Chris Rogers]

get an I pod and I can set it up where the existing radio controls the ipod.

or you can just plug the ipod into the aux input of the cd player at the front (the one in the centre console) ...obviously you'll need to control via ipod and ipod won't be powered by car's battery

I have the same factory tv popup screen/cd player unit minus the stacker in the back and it's a PITA to replace the radio/cassette player because the plastic surround is V shaped
