Well I have the orginal Toyota/ Panasonic Cassette Head Unit and 6 Disc multi changer out of my 99 G6R.

Full working order, just need the cable between the head unit and the multi changer, which im sure toyota can get. The reason it doesnt have it is because it is all wound into the wirng loom of my car and when i changed the head unit i didnt want to mess it all up and left it in place.

£50 plus postage and its yours! :thumbsup:

Hi. I have just joined, i have a 1.4vvti GS X reg which i bought about 2 months ago (it's the facelift model). I want to fit a cd changer (i'm not really into car modifications.... sorry....). As i understand i need to buy the changer and possibly and interface to get it to connect to the toyota head unit it came with. Does any one know which cd changers fit, what the interface is and how easy it is to fit? i'll do it myself 99% for sure, i'll work it out :) but it would be nice if it's easy to do. i'd like a small changer that i can fit either under the passenger seat or in the glovebox (or better still, in that box behind the handbrake, but i don't think that's going to happen!). any ideas?

Here are some i have found...... don't know which are right (i don't know if i have a matsu***** or fujitsu or whatever head unit, i haven't looked yet)

i have a standard tape deck and radio, with the screen high up (above the a/c and heater controls) and the tape player beneath the heater and a/c controls. it has all the labels on the buttons for CD control (and also i think for a navigation system) but it has neither fitted.

thanks in advance!
