1999 ML320
CD add on question

I recently purchased a 1999 ML320 w/the factory bose tape head unit. I would like to install a in dash 6 disc cd cahnger to work with the factory head unit. Is it possible or do I have to change the head unit as well? Also, any suggestions on what in dash changer would be the easiest to fit? I heard that if you wanna keep the factory head unit thenm you must buy some adapter from MB or you have to buy the cd changer sold by MB because if you dont, you can mess up the electrical system. Is this true?
Thanks for the info in advance!

I don't recall if the '99 has the optical connections that more recent MLs have.

I'm pretty sure you have to get the real deal, or an aftermarket one made specifically for the ML.

And I don't think it'll fit in your dash or glovebox. Usually it goes in the compartment at the right rear, near the hatch.

If you have the factory BOSE........

you also should have a 6 disc CD player in the rear. It is not possible to install an in dash unit as far as I know.
