Help - My 6 CD Changer Has Jumped The Shark!
Yep, it's dead I'm afraid.
The changer unit is located under the passenger seat and to replace it would be around $500.00 (plus approx $150.00 labor) I could do this, but maybe there is a more creative and less expensive solution out there!
My stereo has a cassette player and no input jacks of any kind (for an iPod player) Does anyone have any kind of creative idea to get some music back into my truck? I wouldn't balk at buying an iTouch or an iPod dedicated to the task. At least then I could cram on 10,000 songs w/ the iPod. Would it be hard to wire the in dash unit for an iPod or would it have it's own little lead chord coming from the dash somewhere? Ok, so if I can't go the iPod route is there perhaps a device that I could plug a thumb drive or an SD card into to get my music through my speakers? The truck has killer speakers too - but if a solution exists that doesn't utilize the speakers, meh, but ok I guess.
I'm mostly perplexed by the intricacies of this sort of thing.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for ANY help and feedback.
P.S. I just bought the new RV 760LMT GPS unit and it would have been so easy for Garmin to add a SD card music player. I know that other GPS units have had this feature before. Oh well!
