Hi,

I've bought a ice>Link, to connect my iPod to the factory installed
stereo in my 2002 156 2.0 JTS (UK 02 reg), I've bought the package that
should match the factory installed headunit.

http://www.ihavetohave.it/product.php/1348/200/

The headunit is a "Alfa 156 HIGH CD", which google tells me is really a
Blaupunkt, I found this link

http://www.blaupunkt.de/7640378316_main.asp

Where it says it support a "CDC A08" CD changer, which matches the
ice>Link.

The connector on the ice>Link is a "8 pin mini ISO", like the one
on the right in this picture

I believe my car should have a pre-installed CD changer cable in the
boot, and I have been looking, but cannot find any such connector.

In the left side of the boot under the interiou lining, I have found a 3
pin connector, but that is the only connector I can find, so my question
is, does anyone know if there is a pre-installed CD changer cable in a
2002 UK spec 2.0 JTS veloce, and if so, where can I find it ?

thanks
/Jesper

For anyone interested, I had my 36000 mile service done today anyway at
the local Alfa garage, and asked them, they say this model does not have
a pre-installed cable for a CD changer. Though the guy I talked to at
reception was only reading from a piece of paper, and was unable to tell
me if any models/years had it, and if so when it changed.

Back to considering where I should put my ice>Link ...
