02 SLK230 CD changer install
I need help! I've received the OEM CD changer for my SLK (thanks autoclass.net), but I need some help with the install. I've located the CD in and out cables in the trunk, but can't find the power cable. Also, I've only located a CD in cable behind the head unit. Any one have experience with this install?
Thanks,
Cara

I did the install myself on both of my SLKs.
The power cable to the CD changer was bundled with a zip-tie to a larger wiring harness near the top of the tail light. Look for a little connector that's about 1/2-inch x 1/2-inch x 1/4-inch.
Go here for info on the cables in the back of the head unit

When you mount the trunk unit, make sure the "door" is near the back of the car otherwise you will not be able to get the discs out of the unit when the top is down. This is opposite of the way it is installed at the dealership.

There is also the MB Audio 10 CD offered in Europe, but since it's a European model, it won't have perfect AM/FM reception and sound quality.
