Los Angeles CD Changer install

I just received my CD changer and bracket from Performance Products and need it installed. Do I need a fiber optic cable or is it in the car already (2002 C240). Anyway, is there a dealer that will do the install for a reasonble price? I am in the Century City are of Los Angeles (work) and live in Glendale.

Thanks.

Yes, you need the fiber cable but it's cheap, about $20. I know my dealer, MB of Laguna Niguel did it for $123 while I waited. The longest part was the car wash so if you eliminate that it should be done in less than an hour.

The bracket is one piece of metal and 5 not 6 screws.

The changer does have the MB logo
