CR-V 6 disk CD-changer
Hi,
can anyone help with the following. I'm have a UK spec CR-V with factory sat nav. It only has a single disk CD unit fitted. I've been told the sat nav/audio control unit, will control the 6 disk CD unit. This seams logical, and it does have numbers 1-6 on the buttions for radio/single CD control. However, in the UK a Honda dealer list price is a shocking £420 for the 6 disk player & fitting. But I did notice when I was in a couple of different dealers, they sell Honda & Pioneer branded audio equipment. The 6 disk CD changer I fitted/removed from my last car is a Pioneer! And I've been told this should fit straight in to, & work with the cars system. Problem is I don't know where the factory 6 disk unit is fitted, & therefore don't know where the link/power cables are located in the car. And I ain't going to start ripping the car to bits looking for a couple of wires. Dealers don't want to tell you, as they want the fitting work. Can anyone help, or offer advice!! Gordon. |

Try ordering the factory workshop manual--from many sources online. In it you'll find all the info you'd need on existing wiring and cabling. . .I've even found online pdf-format files that are the factory instructions for installing similar equipment in other models.

Re: CR-V 6 disk CD-changer
Anyone have anything else to add, in respect to Pioneer unit being ok with
Honda Sat Nav control unit, or know a good source for these manuals for a UK spec car.

Re: CR-V 6 disk CD-changer
I'm also looking for a reasonably priced multi-CD changer.
The Sony CDX-T69 (6 disk) with the right Sony adaptor unit to plug into the Pioneer Sat Nav (shown for CR-V in the Sony list)looks bound to work, but I suspect their brackets won't help get it fitted under the front passenger seat. I installed this in a Fiesta with a 5000 RDS head & it sounds fine to me. I really want 10 CD's - the CDX-454RF 10 disk with remote display and commander to work with radios which can't handle Sony CD changers. I found installation instructions for the Genuine Honda CD changer - visit: http://www.handa-accessories.com/crvelect02.html Is the Genuine Honda CD changer a standard Pioneer model, boxed with brackets etc. to mount under the seat? |
