vantasticdude Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Hey guys . My 94 has tape only & I've got more disks than tapes by a long shot . I've been useing a tape adapter & portable cd player for the last year now . I really need better sound so I'd like a aftermarket indash unit . Thing is I've been told I need some exotic wire harness that runs to the trunk to do this . Any truth to this ? If I go the changer any recommendations I want quality sound . Thanks guys , Scott [/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis421 Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Hey there As far as BOSE is conserned, you need to do some pretty funny stuff... The actual "radio" is in the trunk with the antenna... There is in fact a wiring harness, but by no means EXOTIC. The fellas here know of the site, but I think there is a link on this home page.

vantasticdude Posted July 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 As far as I can tell I have the non Bose system (it would say Bose on the head unit wouldn't it ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupillac Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I just put in a nice touch screen cd deck in my Caddy, sounds much better too. I simply removed the stock unit and inserted the deck with a nice vinyl mount. "Cadillac, it's not a car, it's an obsession" -W.Kingdon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldgamer Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 I dont reccomend to remove the stock unit, but just put a 12 CD changer in the trank. At least you will have ability to change disks easyly. The guy fix the CD changer to the top of the trank, so I still have virtually all space in the trank available. No exotic wire. Works like a champ. To change system may be possible, but requires much more hassle, cause what you see is actally only control panel. The guy showed me a focus: he pooled that system out of the dashboard, disconnected it, but music was still playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillydude Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 I just pulled a JVC 12 disc changer out of my trunk... nothing wrong with it, I just never really used it. It's the "RF" type, which means you tune the dial to a certain frequency (in my case 87.9) and the music is there. Ping me offlist if you want to make an offer, otherwise it's going up on eBay.

GR8NSTAR Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 I went with CD changer in the trunk as well. I had it mounted to the top of the trunk opening. It's a Sony FM tuner that's set to a specific dial. It works like a charm and it still leaves me the option of playing some of my cassette tapes as well as still being able to use my controls on the steering wheel. All I want to do now is replace current speakers with some better ones and maybe an amp. No box in the trunk crap. I enjoy my 18 hr road trips with virtullaly all luggage in the trunk where it belongs and leg space in the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
