dawso Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 I have a ford 5000 series radio compatable with a cd changer.Which changer would you reccomend i buy also i have been told that it would be better to buy a seperate cd head as the changer would have to be connected between the ariel and radio via a fm modulater i am lost now any advice would be most helpfull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 i presume that that would be for a aftermarket cd changer, as im sure a ford one will fit straight on mate, although IMO its better to get a head unit aswell as the ford one isnt that good a unit, dont get me wrong it aint too bad, but there are better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_b Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 if you want a chager to add sony do the "sound on top" range. will cost about £200-£250 to add a chager to your head unit from Halfords. and will be a cable conection not an fm modulator thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 Okay Ladies and Gentlemen. Here goes: From Halfords (wher i work) you have three options: 1.) Get a Sony "Sound-On-Top Package". This is a 6-disc Sony changer (£179.99) and an interface lead (£49.99). Total cost: £229.98. 2.) Get a new CD changer/new head unit combo. Prices start at £189.99 for a shiyte JVC one. If you want a decent one they are about £249.99+ 3.) Get a Sony FM modulator CD changer - £249.99 but the quality is only marginally better than decent radio reception. But seen as im a nice guy, i have a Original Ford 6 Disc changer that will slot right in. This will cos you £150 but it also includes a 7000 series head unit. Neither have been used much. The choice is yours my friend.... Mr P Naine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_b Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 paulo, i work in Halfords as well, is your store an 'arcade' store ? i knew the sound on top was about 200-250 in total just could not remeber exactlythe changer on the jvc is ok but the kds 611 head unit is crap, so true bit of a crap package.and i dint even know we could get fm modulator type things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
