Discover 2 CD Multichanger

andynab1 · Dec 5, 2010

Hi, sorry to be revisiting this subject but there is that much info out there that i am lost.

I have just bought a 2003 Disco 2 but have no cd multi changer for this. I have the C42 mid-line tape radio fitted (Part no. XQD000050PMA)? and I believe i have all the wiring under the drivers seat.

Can anyone confirm exactly what 6 disc multi changer it is that i require please!? I believe it is an alpine one fitted as standard but can any others be fitted?

Cheers

Not the answer your looking for, but you could consider replacing the whole unit with one of these
D1302 7" LCD CAR DVD Player MP3 Touchscreen USB SD RDS on eBay (end time 28-Dec-10 14:29:50 GMT)
Had mine over 12mths and they are fantastic, plays just about anything you put in it.
Recently bought a pair of headrest dvd players for the kids and this is also connected to them.

could be as cheap to replace the whole unit rather than the 6 disc unit.

thanks for the reply teddykiller. I like the look of that to be honest. Was it a straight swap? Again reading between the lines, quite a few people have speaker problems etc when they swap head units!!!

Just plugged straight across as mines got the standard plugs all cars have now.
I did have it in a Audi A4 before and that didnt like the plugs due to the Audi having some gay amplifier for the rear speakers, so i just wired in 2 new pairs to the rear doors.

Looking at getting the reverse camera £30ish off ebay which just plugs straight in soon as you hit reverse the screen switches to the camera.

i may well be selling the changer from my td5 sometime soon if you're still after one..

teddykiller, I like the idea of that with the camera but would like to keep things simple for a while i think.

rezz, please keep me in mind if you are going to sell it on. do you have a price in mind?

that head unit looks like cracking value for the money, and having a dvd/tv in a disco that is like a mobile front room...will make it one

, and the camera thing sounds good

Why bother with a multichanger...when the cassette in mine broke I now tune my ipod into the radio and that gives me a 1000 disc multi-changer...much better and amazing sound quality.

but what do you use to play it ? i have an ipod in my bmw with a superb head unit and proper connection, ipod tape adapters are not worth a carrot for sound quality, and the fm tranmitters ive found arnt that great either

want to get the multichanger working, just becasue its factory and i want it working

I agree the cassette adaptors are rubbish and I still use my multi changer but only cos the garage supplied a new cassette as a favour. i bought a transmitter that fitted into the cigar lighter AND has a usb connection for the ipod...it was one of the gadgets from japans electronic trade show a couple of years ago..... I have to say the quality is superb and I am pretty fussy...i am sure that quality of transmitter is available generally by now....totally illegal I guess, cos its got a range of well over 1km!
