Hi,

Can anyone tell me what, if any, brands of CD stacker are compatable with the factory EF rad/cass/CD head unit? Must it be the genuine "Ford" unit or will some other brand work?

I don't want the added cost of changing the head unit also.

If I am committed to using the Ford changer, does anyone have one for sale?

Thanks.

Fairlanebyford, I have no idea about which stacker ya can use on the standard head unit but I have a Pioneer 6 stacker in my car at the moment and it doesn't fit into my new head unit. My old one blew up a few months ago and I didn't have enough money for an mp3 player with cd changer capabilities.

If ya find out that the standard head unit can work a pioneer stacker, pm me becuase I am quite willing to sell my stacker becuase it is just sitting in my car doing nothing at the moment.

Hope ya find the info ya are looking for.

An Alpine stacker (M-Bus type not AiNet) will run with the Ford EF EL HU. Model number should start with a CHM (M of M bus) or if they are a bit older they just have a four digit model number like "5960". Don't bother with the CHA model numbers.

There are a few on sale at e-bay. Should be between $75 & $175. I got one for $52 but I was lucky.

One thing you will need is an adapter cable to go between the HU rectagular plug & the 8 pin DIN plug used by Alpine. Once again I was lucky. My FE Fairmont wagon had one fitted when I bought it.

Good luck
