Where can I find the aftermarket Alpine CD Changer? What are the model numbers and where to find the adapter kit for a 2000 E430 Head unit? Thanks.

Im dont think Alpine sell their changer with
the D2B output required to anyone except MB.
Becker sell a unit with D2B that works fine,
there are other articles on this group that
tell you where/how, and how to get the unit *with* the adapter for MB power cables etc.

Alternative, is to phone a MB dealer
in Germany, and order the Alpine unit from
there, with the mounting kit - I think its
around 400 Euros, - a Euro is a few percent
less than a US $
