I have the stock headunit from a 2000 Integra and I was thinking about using the CD-changer input to allow me to connect my laptop to the headunit and play music that way. Does anyone know if this is possible and feasable? If it's possible, is there a converter that can be bought or can I build one?

Thanks

that sounds a bit weird...
the cd changer connection will not likely be a typical rca connection...

I expected this. Any insight on whether or not it's possible would be good. I can build a custom connector if that's what it takes, but I dont know how to trick the head unit into playing music from the "cd changer" input as opposed to the in-deck cd changer or radio.

search places like crutchfield. they may have cd changers adapters to fit aftermarket cd changers to factory headunits

in theroy, you could get 3 adapters from alpine, one Honda/Acura to Alpine changer adapter, one M-bus to Ai-Net adapter and an Alpine auxillary input adapter.

It would seem to me that would work... but dont quote me on it.

Also, email ron@streeteffectz.com about a honda/acura input adapter... I think I remember him saying he has something... I think it was around $70.

you could get an RF modulator off of ebay and do the trick for little money. taps into the antenna input, then you tune into a certain station, the quality isn't perfect but you're listening to mp3s on a stock deck so it won't matter.

the quality is noticable, even with stock... fm modulators sound terrible.

Woah - that'a a bunch of adapters! But thanks for thre suggestion - I'll email Ron and ask him.

The quality on this would be way too low. I'm not trying to build a competition system or anything, just expand the capabilites of the exsiting one.
