Unlikely, the standard head unit is a Kenwood.

The kenwood unit has a socket on the back for a changer so I guess the changer cable plugs in there.

Check out compatibility before you buy. The std head unit is Japanese spec, and won't talk to a UK spec changer unit.

I'm thinking of fitting a CD changer to my standard STi08. I know the standard headunit is made by Kenwood, but will I just be able to buy one, say the KDC 467 or 469, and find that it will work?
I refer to GMC's post about Jap/UK compatibility;can anyone shed anymore light on this?

Thanks
