If you have a CD HU there might be a problem with it controlling it. The late 99's CD HU would work the changer but the early ones would not. My CD HU was manufactured in 12/98 (tag on radio) and it would not control it. 2000 and up should all work fine as well as the cassette HU.

The CD changer will work but you may not be able to control it depending on what head unit you have. If you have the cassette head unit then you won't have a problem. But if you have a single CD player HU you may or may not be able to use the changer - it depends on whether the HU was from early or late in the 99 model year. There was a change made in the middle of the 99 model year that allowed CD head units to control a changer (so all models from late 99 through 02 would work).

I will take $75.00 plus 8.50 shipping. Total is $83.50 just for the changer. I also have the head unit and the amp.

The system is in excellent condition! I took it out becaue I put in a Kenwood mp3/cd system, and none of the monsoon stuff will work with an aftermarket stereo. I am not really trying to sell it, but I will for the price I quoted.

99+ monsoons and newer ones will work. the wiring harness is behind the panel on the drivers side in the trunk.

Do you have the cable and mounting brackets to go with it? What kind of payment do you take? Paypal or money order?

I have one bracket. That is all that was on it when I received it. As stated above the wiring harness is behind the panel on the drivers side in the trunk! All you have to do is plug it in! Someone sent me $75.00 via paypal this morning, but did not include shipping. The first 83.50 takes it!
