pu-2294a Headunit cd changer add on?

Like most of you, the van came with a pu-2294a Headunit. As you know there is a cd changer option on the headunit.

Is there an adaptor they will let you add Bluetooth or at least an AUX in?

Not really intrested in changing it to fancy headunit. This one works and has steering wheel controls, plus I dont want to give someone a reason to pog the window. I will be going to some rough areas

I researched the same thing a while back but just opted for an fm transmitter that plugs into the cigarette lighter socket it has Bluetooth and also a USB charging port which is handy.

From your other post about the trapdoor that may be where the cd changer was supposed to be fitted.

CD's? Who uses CD's nowadays?
I gave away the Stock Clarion/PU stereo and bought a SH Sony Xplod for £25
it was in mint condition and it's  face off type with USB, BT, Aux in etc
You could put your whole CD collection a USB stick and play it from there
and it will handle your calls too or play media directly from your phone
If you really want go cheap ( who doesnt?) there are some half decent chinese ones for £30 ish
that do all the above but some have bloody annoying fake graphic equaliser displays that I'd avoid.
For example this one has DAB as well as BT USB etc  for £27!

Some of us have steering wheel controls and our radio's have mixed up power connection cables

Re: pu-2294a Headunit cd changer add on?

Ok I have been doing some ebaying and found an adapter that worked IMG_2464.jpeg

It connects to the micro iso (blue) where your cd changer would be and tricks the headunit to thinking you have one but you get an aux connection instead.

I got to tidy it up a bit yet, but at least I found something that works!
