Just picked up a CD changer for my 92 and I'm having a hard time finding the harness to connect it.
Where is it or better yet does it have one? I know nowadays cars don't come with a full harness but only with the options you choose for the most part anyway. I've looked behind the light, drivers side cover, the rear cover and above in the back deck. :dunno

Mods if this would do better in the sound section please move it, I was undecided on where it should have gone.

was in the same situation 5 months ago. The trunk said "cd changer compatible" but there was no harness. I took out all the carpet and it wasnt there, took it to the shop and they pulled out the head unit and found out there wasnt any cable. They guy told me that some 92's have this problem.

hope it helps,
Jeff

I was just cleaning out my trunk this evening, and I just happened upon it. It is behind the trim panel on the right side of my trunk in my 94 325ic. It's a round connector. I'm assuming a 92 might be similar.

To get there, remove the trunk floor, the rear trim panel, the right tail light cover then the right trim panel. The connector is just hanging there with a label on it.

I'll have a better look tomorrow evening.
Does the HU plug into the changer via the other small square 10 pin connector on the HU? I have the big connector that goes to the main harness but I'm thinkn the other connector prolly goes to the changer. dunno

Pulled the back cover, trunk cover and looked behind the passenger side cover and saw only the gas tank wires, battery cable and a speaker wire. :(

While pulling the passenger side trunk cover to do shocks today viola I found the power connector to the cd deck. Now all I need is the other round connector. I'll keep looking. :confused

Hope you can find it!

Let this be a lesson for others... check for the harness before buying the changer!
