Anyone install a CD changer in a 2002 Bonneville?
 
I'm looking for recommendations on what CD changer to get. Does Pontiac offer one or is this an after-market option?

Thanks

Mine came with a 12-disc truck mount. Of course, since it was factory installed, it is integrated with the dash unit and the steering wheel controls.

I believe you could get one from a dealer, but the price may be a bit prohibitive campared to a car stereo shop. As far as how well an aftermarket changer would work with the factory head unit, I couldn't answer that for sure.

Willwren has an after market 10 disc changer that broadcasts over fm frequincies. it seems to work pretty well when i have taken the car on shorts errands.
soon as i get my new stereo im putting one in

Yup. It works pretty good. I'm very impressed, and I bought a cheapo. Changes CD's and tracks faster than my fairly new Jensen changer I removed when I built Lilpooky's "ssei" stereo. If the factory unit isn't feasible or cost effective, go this route.

With cd's changers you have to watch because it usually works that the changer has to be the same brand as your deck. If its not you have to by a seperate controller for more money. I have a JVC deck and bought a JVC changer for $100 on ebay (that seems the wa to get cheap excellent quality stuff) but it is almost always cheaper to buy aftermarket then to go back to the dealer.
