CD changer wires tap?

I dont know if it's do'able or not, but can you tap into the cd changer wires for an in line converter? This would save soo much time and effort. Plus Im lazy

Not sure what you mean by 'in-line converter' - are you trying to tap a line level audio signal into the radio from the CD changer connections?

You would need an adaptor to put line level audio into the audio connectors at the rear of the car. IceLink does this as do a number of Sat Radio adaptors. Take a look at http://www.crutchfield.com

Yes, your power wire will be in the middle of the 3-pin connector - verify with a multimeter to be sure before wiring in the converter.

Here is a link to the version we offer on the website:

12 Amp Power Noise Filter
