Hi,

You need to buy the wiring loom to fit a changer. Up to 2001 cars were not fitted with the chnager loom unless a changer was fitted at the factory.

The full info inc. part number for the lead is in our how to section here:

Hi there, fitting a CD changer is easy. Well, I think it is....

If you need help with fitting one then I'll gladly give you a hand, you seem to be reasonably local... Drop me a PM if you're interested.
