Fabia vRS Mk1 - Underseat CD Changer Retrofit

[BruceWayne]

Also posted this in the 'Items Wanted' section, but thought I might try here as well...

I'm after an underseat CD changer kit for my Furby. I should be getting the CD changer in soon. This kit consists of the underseat fixing brackets, the wiring harness to connect it to the stereo, and the plastic surround trim.

There is a thread on here from a few years back, and one of the posts lists the item number for this kit as: AZO 400 101

Just phoned Skoda and they advised this part was discontinued about 5 years ago :|

Can anyone help me in tracking one down.....pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaase!

I found a picture of the kit from a Russian Skoda forum. Attached for reference.

Have you tried ebay? usually have a few cars for breaking on there, just contact the seller to see if they have one, not sure if they'd get the loom out in one piece though.

tried that mate, and will keep trying. I'm not sure if the CD changer only came as standard on the SE models though...?

btw, tell your son to take that hat off! I can recommend a great shop on White Hart Lane where he can get a replacement... :p

No need bud, both his godfathers are Tottenham fans, plenty of dodgy gifts to come no doubt. Back on topic, have you tried other VAG models like polos?

[BruceWayne]

lol, we're everywhere mate!

Re: Polos, good point. But would they have the same cd changer fitted under the passenger seat? If they do, then I'm certain they could be an exact fit...might have to find me a VAG forum and pose the question.

This sort of thing could be an option...

OK, so it's not exactly a CD changer but would allow you to keep your CDs at home.

That is good idea mate. However the link you provided is for models 2005 onwards. But I'm sure there will be one available for an 04 plate.

Thanks!

D'oh!

Try this one then:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SKODA-FABIA-OCTAVIA-USB-SD-CARD-AUX-IN-ADAPTER-INTERFACE-CONNECTS2-CTASKUSB001-/160819999429?pt=UK_MP3_Player_Accessories_Cables_Adapters&hash=item25719e72c5

Or even something a little more unashamedly copied... Look at Xcarlink, then google yatour.... They have a "ycarlink" website....
