They should just be standard plugs? (unless he got the cabasse 6 cd changer)

Yeh hes got the stupid cd changer is there any other options?

what sort of CD player it is?

The one in the car is a cabasse 6 cd changer.

You will need an auto-electrician to rewire the stereo, the normal headunit and the mp3 HU have standard ISO plugs. The 6 cd doesn't have these behind the unit.... the connector are under the seat!

Someone on renaultsport had it done and cost about 80-90 quid to have the connections rewired and moved to the dash.

Just found the post on renaultsport site::

Anyway to heed a word of warning too any Cabasse 6 disc chnager owners looking at changing their headunit, it's a pig to change and I had to get the car rewired, the guys at Berkshire car sounds where I got it done showed me, basically all the traditional stereo connectors are in with a unit at the amp, the bit in the dash is just the control unit.

Took them 4 hours to do however they only charged my £90 which I thought was a bargain, tiu was also a very proffesional job.

Hiya,

I had the same issue, but installed an aux lead instead.
