Will any CD changer work with the HK system? I got the HK, but not with the CD changer. I'm hoping I can pick a nice one up for less than the dealer wants to charge me.

I my experience it's not the changer that is the issue, but the "Little blackbox" that is inline to your heed unit that deciphers the head units command.

In my case, Ford wanted $600 for 6 disc changer. We put a Audiovox 10 changer in, but it was critiical we had the right "black box/controller".
