No response in Audio Section...

Just wondering if anyone has had any success with installing a late model Becker or Apline head unit along with its CD changer into a 1987 300D?

I would like to have the convenience of several CDs on demand while still, retaining a stock appearance - albeit, a decade or so newer.

A friend has a deck and changer from a CLK just taking up shelf space.

Can anyone advise as to wiring this unit up into an early 124?

Thanks in advance.

Tom

Avoid the ones with the "security loop". Once cut they have to go back to becker.

Just install an aftermarket one. I got my Sony CD player that plays MP3s and has Aux-in for $100 and installed it in a few hours.

What I've actually done is I bought a Kenwood unit and hooked up an adapter to my Ipod, now I don't have to worry about cd's and tapes.
