That unit doesnt have cd changer input on it so you cant add one! weve got ten in stock in our shop and it definately cant be done. you can plug an ipod into it or an mp3 player depending on if you get the proper ipod lead with it or just the jack plug lead. the ipod specific lead charges the ipod and you can control it from the unit.steering control adaptor can be done but there are about 4 different types for clios. without takin the original unit out its impossible to tell. some are can-bus and some arent. but yes they can be done.

Nothing will work with the standard fit changer bar the standard headunit anyway. Steering controls can be adapted.
