My recently purchased car, a 2004 75 Conn SE would presumably originally had a Symphony unit, but a previous owner has installed a modern Sony unit with gawdy blue lights, so as I like 'original', I would like to change it back to the original Symphony unit.

I removed the Sony unit to see what wiring is there - see picture below.

I am hoping that folks can help me with the following questions:

1. If I buy a second-hand Symphony unit the physical fitting will be straightforward, and I guess I'll need to remove the existing adaptor loom shown in the picture,(which will just leave the grey block and the yellow block (shown plugged into the black receptors) and the yellow/green/blue block shown dangling.

But then will the wiring I've got plug straight into the Symphony unit or will I need another adaptor loom?

2. I would like to have a 6CD changer and would like to install it in the glove compartment.
Will that be easy to do, a) physically, and b) wiring-wise?

3. Does anyone have a Symphony unit or a CD changer or both for sale?

Thank you.
