6 Disc Changer for MY 2000 9-5 Aero

Craig,

You have a few choices.

1. Live with the CD player and deal with just having to swap out CDs

1. Pay the dealer for unit and installation. Even if you put the changer in yourself, you will have to take the car to the dealer or Indy that has a Tech II and have the unit "married" to the car. Or you will have to spend about K to buy yourself a Tech II.

2. Get an RF modulated CD changer that inputs into the sound system via the radio. The output of the changer is put inline with the antenna of the radio. An unused radio frequency is used to "tune in" the CD Changer. This allows you a much wider selection in CD Changers ie, a 10 disk Changer. The factory controls on the radio WILL NOT work in this setup. You will have either a remote or separately mount controls for the CD Changer.

1. Yes, you could get used unit, BUT IT MUST BE "DIVORCED" FROM THE ORIGINAL CAR WITH A TECH II. It the unit is not divorced, IT WILL NEVER WORK IN ANY OTHER CAR. You will have a nice door stop. Again, after installation into your car, the changer with have to "married" to your car with a Tech II.

This is a security feature that renders a stolen CD Changer useless. Lets just hope that someone has told the would-be thieves about this feature.

Good Luck, hope this helps,

Hi there there Brother Craig.

You might want to check with Crutchfield or other mail-order outfit for a compatible Clarion changer. I have a Clarion (DC625) installed with my '95
