Hello Everyone, hows everyone doing? I am new here and we jus bought a 2001 ml430. It has 58,000 km on it and it was lady driven. I am in Canada so thats why its in Km. And we got it for 29,500 Cnd. I was jus wondering, it did not come with a cdplayer or cd changer. The 1st owner drove back and fourth from another city. I guess she wasnt fond of cd's. Anyways I phoned a Mercedes dealer up and they were charging me over $1200 Cnd. I have the deck with the 4 inch display. It has cassette. Now I was just wondering how do I go abouts. I was thinking if there is prewiring. I can do it myself. But after reading many many posts I am confused. So how do I go abouts? What changer do I buy? Do I need any adapters etc etc?(I am really confused.) I would really appreciate the help since this is the first Benz we ever owned.

It *should* be prewired for a cd changer. It takes a fiber optic changer, and yes they are expensive. Do yourself a favor and skip Ebay or used ones here. Buy it new. I see a lot that malfunction, and then work properly for a short time only to malfunction again. Its best to start with a known good product with a warranty than to take a risk on someone else's problem. Who in thier right mind takes a cd changer out of a car anyways?
