As I have no idea where to look even for the wiring loom connections in the boot or where ever it maybe in the saloon, that is providing it will even have the correct connections to connect this type of cd changer... as in my Estate car its situated by the o/s rear wheel & doubt it will fit there in the saloon, :-[ :-[
So where do I look to see if there is connections to fix it to, if its a no go its back to the idea of a single cd player me thinks :y

Changer (and amp for the Bose system pictured there) will be in same place as the estate...but a CD is unlikely to have ever had a boot changer so unlikely to have the loom...you will need to get it as well as Bose amp and speakers to get this working properly...also need to check if you have the loom to drivers footwell from the stereo for easy installation...behind the cover to the right of your accelerator pedal should have an ECU and a grey plastic connector that slots over/round it...
