Bose questions

I cannot seam to find this anywhere, so I hope this is the right place to post. I have a 2001 Infiniti-I-30 with a Bose CD. I assume it is the same as the 2001 Maxima. I have three questions: 1) What is the best (not too expensive)way to put in a CD changer? I checked at Circuit City and they said something about because it is a Bose they cannot just put in a changer, even in the trunk. I called an Infiniti Dealer and they want over $600.00 to install a changer in the trunk (sounds like highway robery to me). 2) Can an in-dash 6-disk Bose CD changer from a 2002/2003 Maxima/Infiniti be changed out with the 2001 single disk? 3) Has anyone had the Bose system taken out and some other brand with an in-dash 6-disk player put in and if so, what would that cost?

Thanks for your help,

Jim

I think there should be an adapter you can purchase to install aftermarket components with Factory premium sound systems.

I took a look at this page...check this out:

http://carstereohelp.com/nissanBoseMax.htm

Right at the top is the '00-'02 Maxima and on the right column is the following:

"Rear shelf rattle or buzz associated with subwoofer? Your local dealership sells a Rattle and Buzz repair kit."

Anyone heard of this?

I would certainly want to check this out before I dropped several hundred $$ on an Infinity Basslink install (trunk space more important than big sound).

its a Clarion unit. you should be able to pick one up for under $200, then you need an adapter you can get from PIE

Bose Questions Answered

Thanks everyone for all the help. Found a car stero place today that agreed to get the adapter and install for $404.00 out-the-door, including everything, tax etc.

Thanks again,

Jim
