Looking for a Nakamichi or Pioneer (actually both)

Head Unit
Amp(s)
CD Changer

working or not, let me know what you want for it. I am looking for cheap. If it is broken thats ok, just let me know and if you know how it broke that would be great.

Working or not, pieces, parts whole or not.

My goal here is to decode the serial signal between the Nakamichi (first) and Pioneer head unit to the CD player. Neither company would help me out, blah blah talk to Lexus all that.

Once I get the serial protocol then you can:

- connect a computer via USB and access it via the cd controls.
- connect another more common cd changer.
- mp3/ipod


Like I said, cheap. I have a stereo that works, just looking for the 'monster' hack.

by the way, our CD changer part numbers are:
PIONEER CDX-M97512T
NAKAMICHI CX-CS5110A

Uh... I got a working factory headunit that was working with the nakamichi amp. I think I think I have the amp too, but the amp's water damaged. 50 bucks + shipping cheap enough for both?

That's one hella hack you going for. I'll bet a more than a few of us are hoping that you can share the knowledge back here on the forums. Good luck and keep us posted
