strawberryzoe Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Hi All!My first time here and a proud new member!Does anyone know anything about installing CD changers in the boot as I have heard that the wiring is already in place but I doubt it somehow. I am debating whether to install an "in dash" unit or go for the changer in the boot option style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":confused:" border="0" alt="confused.gif" /> - any advance would be great - trying to wangle a christmas present!!cheers!

Tigz™ Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 (edited) As far as I know the Lupo has never been offered with a boot changer.Single in dash, or 6 disc in dash only.The only option for the boot is a 'Phatnoise' mp3 storage device.Which ever you choose though, the wiring isn't already in place.Welcome to the Club Zoe.

strawberryzoe Posted December 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Thanks Tigz,It all seems like a lot of hassle to put a CD changer in the boot and the 'in dash' ones are quite expensive - i'll probably just go for a single CD player which should slot in under my radio, don't know much about it but i'm sure it'll be fine!Thanks again style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 A 6 disc VW changer should cost no more than £100.Theres plenty around on ebay and every now and again in the classifieds here.A single CD player should cost up to around £50.

Tigz™ Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 A 6 disc in dash CD changer.Looks the same as the 'normal' CD player.Pretty trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupogtiboy Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 if u have the in-dash vw single cd player, u can connect a vw 6 cd boot changer to it, and then use the "select" switch to flip between the 2. it works fine for me! the boot changer cable is readily available from vw dealers, but is quite expensive frrom memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 You could quite easily fit a CD Changer in the boot, The Sony T69 changer is cross compatible with the Beta head unit standard in the Lupo's, Although you will need to purchase an adaptor kit for it (around £50) Unfortunately their are no wires pre run for a boot changer as it wasnt an option.

Tigz™ Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Speaking of which. theres one for sale Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_chris1981 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 is there anywhere else you could easily fit a changer, cos im tempted by a sat nav unit and from what i understand these cant play audio cds...you need a changer too.......but the boot is not exactly accomodating.

nfbr Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 In the lupo the only place you could put a changer is in the boot IMO... You can't really put one under the seats cos of how the subframe is made. plus you'd only be able to velcro it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshirt2k Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 If i were to put a changer in the loop i would custom fit it into on of them pockets in the rear beside the rear seats.It would make use of them usless pockets IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
