I want to purchase the AMI as my glovebox changer does not play mp3's ridiculous when u consider the car is an 07.
my guy at the dealer tells me to install the ami i will loose the changer. i thought u could use both..changer on disc 1-6 and ami on 7-12 am i wrong? is there a special adapter that allows them to be used together?
any help would be great.
also i tried to order the mp3 player version of the glove box disc changer..but its only available for warranty replacement so u can't actually buy it so they tell me
cheers

You can have both CD changer and AMI installed in your car. You need to have either new glove box or modifying your glove box to fit them both.
You need to add one brand in the MOST bus and one electrical connection for the new device.

the documentation that is missing from the article should come with the kit.
