Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a CDR-23 head unit with a 6 disc CD changer in the front. I want to change this so I can connect my ipod, with the ipod located in the centre consol. It looks like Becker may make a compatible connection but I'm not sure. Has anyone done this? Is it easy enough to get the cable through?

POST 2Original post

Hi Mark it depends how much you want to spend and how easy you wan't to controll your ipod. I now have the becker grand prix, looks totaly factory and good controll for the ipod. I did use for a short while a solisto connection. It comes with connection lead for the ipod and it's long enough to reach the centre armrest. It also comes with a 3.5mm jack socket to connect other types of music players. It works through and replaces the multichanger. Basicaly you put together 6 playlists of upto 99 tracks per playlist and hey presto. It works well and it's a well put together piece of kit. It's sat next to my desk if your interested in making me an offer. Good luck with the upgrade.

POST 3Original post

The Becker Grand Prix is the way to go. Ipod connection and Bluetooth for phone. I think you may have to lose the cd changer though.

POST 4Original post

I can vouch for the Becker Grand Prix. I have one with a 110w amp in the boot, Infinity reference replacement speakers and a custom built shelf in the rear running to 6 x 9 Pioneer 3 ways with the mid and tweater gained out to give me just the bass. Sounds excellent. The iPod cable that you would get for the unit is fairly short though. This is my only criticism. I had to have my cable poking up through a small gap in front of the gear selector. However, this is quite handy to have the iPod in the cubby hole under the stereo. Originally I would have like to have hidden the iPod away in the centreconsole. The Becker unit is fantastic, you will never want to use a CD again. Besides, CD's jump to easily.

POST 5Original post

+1 ^^^^ What he said. I also fitted a Becker GP and it is a) great b) excellent for bluetooth too and c) looks an original part rather something out of MaxPower.

POST 6Original post

Mark - your CDR-23 has the MOST fibre-optics connecting head unit, amp, and CD changer, so I think you are somewhat limited in your options. Either rip the whole lot out and start again, or get an aftermarket device like the Dension Gateway, Mobridge, etc.

POST 7Original post

or go for an FM transmitter. Depends if you want high quality.
