Where Should I put My CD Changer ??
I have a Kenwood 10 disc multi CD Changer that I am going to fit into a MY05 4Door.
I was wondering if anyone else has fitted a changer into a Scoob, If so where is the best position to fit it so it isn't on show and doesnt skip ?? Cheers Mark. :) |
I've done this with a classic, if that's any help. It stands up on the o/s of the boot at the rear.
Wherever you put it, DO check what's behind there before you drill;) Alcazar |

Kenwood MP3 changer, velcroed down under drivers seat, facing towards the back seat and as far foward as possible,right upto the cross member. Its NEVER skipped and NEVER moves around. Infact ive also fitted a Aiwa & Clarion unit using the same method, never had any complaints!!!!

Yeh, i got some cheap self adhesive velcro from Tradex, £1 a box (3mtrs per box) covered the bottom of the changer in the 'hook' side ,it stuck like crap to a blanket, job done.

if you put the cd facing to rear under the passenger seat it can change the cds form a seated position

'nother vote for under the seat here :D

Changer cable routing doesn't matter, as it's a balanced signal in the kenwood (I *think*) so is better at rejecting noise. I've certainly never picked up noise in a CD changer cable using runs that would pick up noise in RCAs...
DOwn the side of the car is the easier route, as it's a pain to lift the carpet in the middle whereas getting into the door sills is trivial. |
