I have tried this lead with an mp3 player i bought. The problem
Is that the cd changer needs a signal from the device
To turn over to the aux input, so it didn't work.

I think there are leads specifically for the iPhone??

you need to press the cc button twice on the gamma to get it to come on
you can get a connects2 ipod adapter but you will also need a scosche passport as the connects2 unit will not charge the iphone as they are only 5v

Hi guys quick question... I have a Gamma H/U with the 6 disc changer in the boot and i'm looking to change it to a either Alpine/Kenwood setup. The question i have is - If i were to replace the CD changer to a kenwood/ Alpine one to communcate with the new head unit, would their wiring connect to the car's or would i need to rewire it all?

P.S does anyone know the dimensions of the boot CD changer?

Regards

Dan

no you would need to fit either the associated kenwood or pioneer changer lead
