CD Changer Prep

[NeilF]

I've read a couple of posts on here about getting the CD changer prep free of charge in the UK. I can't see anything in the brochures about this so I'm going to ask the daft question.......

What exactly is this ?

Does it mean I could walk into the dealer at a later stage, buy a CD changer, then simply plug it in and Hey Presto, without running cables all over the car ?

If so, is the actual CD changer any more expensive to get fitted doing it this way ? Would I be cheaper getting it factory fitted when I order the car ?

Yes NeilF that's it.

At the factory they run the cable between your head unit and the little compartment on the right side of the boot in preparation for plugging in a changer at a later date.

I got it free but now it's a £30 option I'm afraid. Still cheap I suppose but getting something for nuthin' was nice.

Thanks for that info Ken. Anything that helps to bring down the initial purchase cost is most welcome !

BTW........which Mini dealer do you use.......Dunedin or Eastern ? Do you have anything good or bad to say about either ?
