cd changer

[The Radman]

ive had this kicking around for a while now and was going to fit it in mine but ive decided not to bother so im going to sell it,question is does the head unit just fit in place of the cd player or is a diff loom reqd? the changer plugs into the back of the head unit ok but it would need a longer lead if it was going to be mounted in the boot,also i presume it doesnt need a code or anything?

As you say Nick these is no code on these.

Also uses the existing 2040 cd loom iirc.

Tommi will know for certain as if had one off me last year.

[Simon T]

Glovebox mount job, never seen one in an Escort though.

[steviecossie]

Could you not mount it under the passenger seat to save you getting a longer lead, that's where I had mine

[cosmo]

The changer mounts on the boot floor, right-hand side.

The lead will reach too.

Was never a factory option for the Cosworth though.

[The Radman]

this lead wont as its about 1 ft long lol,itll need an extension one

[Ben Purnell]

yes all fits in the same place as the original cd player, have toyed with the idea of one. Pm me a price Nick

[Ben Purnell]

Nick a new lead is easy enough to sort out

[cosmo]

this lead wont as its about 1 ft long lol,itll need an extension one,any idea on value?

The lead on the one I had was about two miles long

[The Radman]

surprised you had room in the boot for the changer then,it must have been full of lead,lol

its not for sale yet ben as i dont even know if any of it works ill have to test it all out sometime

[The Radman]

well after faffing around on my way to nat day trying to change a cd out of a 5 cd jewel case and nearly going into a barrier ive decided to fit it after all,sorry ben ill update my resto when its done,if it works lol

[Ben Purnell]

lol the very same reason I want one, just keeps it looking fairly standard with being a ford unit. Have you decided where you will put the changer if it works?

[The Radman]

in the boot,its too big for anywhere else,if it was a 6 disc one then it may have squeezed under the seat or somewhere but at least it will be more acessible in the boot anyway
