CD changer with MP3 capability

timtheenchanteruk · 13th February 2016, 13:25

I have an MG ZT with the kenwood cassette head unit and changer in the boot.
Id like to keep the head unit, it doesnt sound half bad, and I can use the steering wheel controls.
I would however like to change the cd changer for a unit that can take MP3 CDs.

Does anyone know of any compatible models?

The multi changer on my ZT is supposedly mp3 compatible but I could never get an mp3 disc to load so I put it down to the head unit not supporting it.

In the end I just changed the head unit to one with an SD card slot and Bluetooth. You'll fit many times more mp3s onto a 32gb memory card than you would onto a whole stack of CDs. I don't have the steering controls connected but it's simple and cheap to do it, unfortunately I have more pressing things to deal with first.
