Subject: Re: cd changer question


There is only one type of CD-Player that will work with the stock Saab 900 stereo. It would be a Clarion CD-Changer. I bought an aftermarket Clarion CD-Changer. You, unfortunately can't use any Clarion cd-player, you have to get either the RDC-634 or the CDC-635 model. This is because those cd players are the only ones that the prewired Saab connector cable will fit. The RDC is cheaper than the CDC because it has a digital output, but otherwise there is no real difference in sound quality. The only thing about these cd-players, as well as with the stock Saab cd-players, is that you can't play burned cd's on them. The prewired cable is located behind the carpet on the left side. The cable should be either almost next to and under the power antenna or near the floor. The cable is covered with a black rubber tip and is bundled with some other cables. If you're going to install the cd player yourself--> To remove the carpet, you have to take apart the speaker assembly, and then pull out the carpet until you can see and reach down into that area. I went on ebay and I bought a used two-year old RDC cd-changer for about $100 and it works great, or you can order it from this website: http://www.discountcarstereo.com/oem/oemchangers.htm they charge you $209. If you want to buy one at a store like Best Buy it'll cost you about $249. Hope this helps. Chris
