Will this work with my CD-Stacker?

Have been watching a E46 CD head unit on Trademe here: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=224879672

I'm looking to swap out the factory MD player in my 318ti but can anyone tell if the CD unit will still work with the factory CD Stacker as well??

Depends on the year of your car... Looks like an old gen radio and may need an adaptor harness and aerial amplifier if you have a new gen car (think the changeover was around the middle of 2001 but could be wrong).

It's a CD43 stereo, so should work with the factory E46 CD stacker OK. If it was a Japanese one, you may find it is not a world mode stereo and can't be reprogrammed to NZ frequencies like the later versions.

Have you asked Ray at Hell BM?

Jochen should be able to also provide insight here.
