CD Interchanger - Arial
« on: 10 March 2011, 15:31:26 »
Car: 2.0 16v Eco Auto CDX
I have what appears to be the slot and wiring for a CD Changer in the boot  :-? (offside)
Can I buy other manufacturers CDC's? I have a Pioneer DEH Unit; or is the wiring/connectors specific to Vauxhall/Opel supplied CDC's? mine has a 12 pin rectangular connector.
I would consider changing the head unit if I needed to, say a Sony/Kenwood, rather than re-wire the whole car!!

Also I have what looks like a Mobile Phone Arial on the roof above High level Brake Light, can this be used to supply a signal to the Head Unit  :-? my existing rear window arial isn't much use?

On the Aerial side, in a word, No, wrong Aerial, wrong Cable, different frequency and feeder impedance.
