Will this plug in behind the stock head unit, or in the trunk?
Do I lose the use of the CD changer?

The adapter will fit either HU or CDC cable in the trunk. You will lose CDC functionality though

I own an 02 a6 with the Bose in dash 6 cd changer. I am interested!

edit:
never mind, I got the registration to work.

Do you think it would be possible to set this up with a switch to allow controls to pass through to the CDC?

I assume you would need another plug, a switch, and some relays...

Yes you can have a manual switch between CDC and PC. Not sure you'll want to get CDC back though

hmm, will it also work with Jaguar? I think they are in the same group as Rover?

[edit]
****, its LAND Rover. The Ford group. W/e same **** different name

So I guess this is not possible? At least not inte the near future... ?

Probably not possible on this version Mañana...

Thats why I said, 2002 - 2005 Range Rover models (afaik the only one that got BMW internals in the Land Rover family) is the only truck that supports this. Now, Ford has bought LR from BMW (bmw developed the current model of Range Rover, the one that is compatible with this, 2002-2005), and is replacing everything with Jaguar (Ford's luxury brand) internals...

I'm also a bit unsure, as it seems that some 05 models already have Jag electronics, which would mean these cant play

damn

Well, is it possible that it will become supported, or should I just try to sort something else out?

It will be taken care of, don't worry.

A buddy of mine just leased a BMW 330, he love the carputer but doesn't want to dismantle his leaser. If this is just plug and play, I think I can talk him into doing some testing for ya.
