hey 1st gen peeps
i started this thread in the electronics forum. No one is really hanging out there it looks like. Can you guys with CD players tell me if this looks like yours? I want to go from TAPE ONLY to at least having the CD button and then adding the changer later.
edit: oh, the guy on the auction has no idea what car this is from which is why I'm asking. I have a picture of the back, too, it looks like it has two square plugs.

IT ISN"T GOING TO WORK. There is no way you are going to get the cd-changer to work.
1 the cd changer is in the trunk.
2. you are going to have to run LOTS OF WIRES to the trunk.
3. its just not worth it. i would just go aftermarket.

Oh, wow. You've got two little buttons in the top right corner? What do those do?
Found out that stereo is the pioneer one anyway. I need the Nak unit if I'm going to do this. I know I should go aftermarket but this is on ebay for like $30 right now and I kinda like the factory look.

It will cost you more than $30 but, here is your solution for both tape and CD play along with keeping a semi stock look...
Go get a Nakamichi TD-35, 40 or 45 and add a 6-disc indash changer below it (MB-70). That was my original choice before I went nutty. With a good dash bezel it will look great!!

why don't you just keep your stock headunit and buy a cd changer and put it in the trunk. there is a kind that uses FM signal. so no wires needed. its sounds very good also. i think one of the company is sony. so no need to change everything just get a cd-changer that uses fm signal good luck
