I have an 05 AT Coupe. I am used to having atleast a 10 disk changer. I was just wondering if we can hook up and aftermarket Alpine cd changer in the coupe that wont hurt the present 05 deck. Will I have to do any modding or can i just throw it in the trunk or top glove box?

Maybe a pretty simple question...

Thanx in advance people...

 

I doubt any will fit in the top glove box.

One solution:

Get the PAC AAI NIS adapter which adds an aux. input to your "SAT" button. Connect this adapter to the audio out on the aftermarket CD changer (via RCA cables) located in the trunk and control via aftermarket changer's control interface.

You will not have any interface/control of the aftermarket CD changer via the stock HU, you will need to use the aftermarket changer's proprietary control interface, be it a hardwired module mounted in/around/on the dash or a remote.

 

i was reading on the site that PAC AAI NIS will not work if you have the XM setup... any info on that? i have the xm antenna but i dont use xm.

 

anyone know the answer to this??

 

I had my 6 cd Alpine MP3 changer hooked up with my stock 04 deck.. the again.. it used an FM Modulator and went through FM.. the advantage was a clean setup (until I decided to do my Double DIN of course ) and you maintain volume controls on it.
