Aftermarket stereo combatibility with 6 cd changer

[Nintai42]

Hi there,

I have a 2000 Insight with a 6 cd changer and 4 speakers. It sounds fantastic with the cds now, but I would like to play my mp3 player as well. Currently the tape adapter is not the highest quailty, so I am thinking about switching the tape deck to a cd player with an aux input. Would the 6 cd changer still work with the aftermarket cd player? Or would I do better keeping the stock stereo and upgrading the casette adapter? Thank you!

there are some adaptors that "intercept" the cd changer audio line and let you use an external audio source. im not sure if their available for honda, but its a possibility.

i havent figured out who manufactured the honda radio yet, but allot of times if you can nail down the manufacturer, you can find a compatibility list with other stereos and maybe find one that has an aux input.

but really, for all the trouble it may be cheaper and easier to find a $150 new cd player with an aux and usb input , and rip all the cd to a flash drive...

after a 3000 mile trip we still have songs we didnt listen too on ours that was hooked up to my truck radio, amazing stuff...
