oem one costs too much

for the price of an oem one, you can buy a jvc deck and jvc 12 disc mp3 changer...

honestly I would recommend a CD changer altogether. everybody I know that ever installed a changer (including myself) got rid of them becuase they never used them. eventually you will start getting too lazy to go to the trunk all the time to change CD's and then you still stop using it after a while. If you want something a bit easier to use, go for a CD player that supports MP3, it is like having a CD changer right in your dash. ever since I upgraded to MP3 a few years ago I have never looked back

I just don't wanna change the head unit in the car.....My friend got his changer but he has a VW its pretty much just plug it in and it plays....thats why I was thinking honda might have something like that but I guess they don't? You gotta run a wire from the trunk to the head unit when you want to install?

regular audio cd changers suck but i like mp3 changers

ie. the jvc 12 disc mp3 changer looks nice because it will store so many damn songs....

just load it up with mp3 cd's and you'd have so much music that you wont have to touch it for quite awhile...

it's like having a jukebox in the car....

hmmm...it would be even better if they start making DVD changers...imagine having all your songs in the car without ever having to change cds...

do you know which mp3 changer would work in our cars? Like a simple install, no hardcore wiring?
