Any competent “DIYer” can do it Set yourself some free time to plan and install your CD changer. Think about where your CD changer is going to be positioned and ensure that access is clear enough to insert and eject the magazine.

There are very few connections to be made in a CD changer installation and, though it can be somewhat time-consuming in some vehicles, we think you'll be happy to save yourself an installer's fee.

When mounting the CD Changer you can use the brackets and screws supplied with each changer. Some car audio shops can supply you with adhesive Velcro for FREE (You just let them know via email when ordering).

Easy Installation with Adhesive Velcro

We recommend you only use Velcro when mounting the CD changer horizontally (flat) as a large surface area is used to join the two mounting surfaces together minimizing any movement. Please, be aware that manufacturers do not actually recommend using Velcro, but in our experience, we have found it an excellent way to mount CD changers quickly and effectively.

This is especially true for awkward locations such as glove boxes, under the passengers’ seats and for flat surfaces where drilling would be difficult and undesirable. Audi A3 and BMW 3 series are a prime example (This is dependent on boot design).

Stick the Velcro strips to the CD changer first and then place the CD changer into the appropriate mounting location. What have you got to lose? If the discs happen to skip (it would be a first in our experience) simply use the brackets and screws supplied as a backup plan.

Go to this site: car-audio-products-and-accessories.com and read the installation articles. They cover much on car audio installation. They will help you do a better job of your car audio installation.

However, if you choose to use the pros, go here for a professional installer if you're in the UK.
