[Q] NAKAMICHI Cd Changer Replacement
 

So I bought the BMW with the NAKAMICHI 6 disc cd changer installed. It had a jam and now it doesnt work. I was wondering if any other cd changer would work as a "Plug and play" with the existing 16:3 nav and wiring harness? I dont want to buy another NAKAMICHI because it has a tendency to jam. I really miss being able to listen to cds.

BTW the NAKAMICHI was mounted in the Glove box if that helps in any way....

Thanks in advance

Try Alpine.Thats what came oem with my x5...
You may be lucky to find a nice used one on Ebay.

I saw that and I am definitely interested in installing that unit. My question is, what does the connector on the back look like? I dont know if my X has it. I know it installs near the Nav brain but I dont know what the connector looks like.. :confused: Does your connector look like the image attached? Thanks again for helping me. I'm tired of having only radio as my option and i do not want to loose the stock appearance...

Does yours only use two connections? (Fibre optic and the smaller port) or does yours use all three?

No problem,glad to help!
Yes,its exactly the same!I think just the name changes!
Check out my photo of the Alpine cd in my car and also see the references:)

Btw,the small connector next to the smaller plug is for Digital DSP .
My DSP is analogue ,so I dont use it...
