Default Zen M Installed!

I got my Creative Zen M MP3 player hooked into my factory HU and it sounds great (huge in comparison to the FM adapters). I used the PIE GM9-Aux input adapter with a GMH20T adapter harness. The install was very straight forward and fairly painless thanks to all of the posts here on the forum. I went this way because the GMH20T harness is much less expensive than the Cor-Har but requires removing the HU from the dash. If anyone does a similar install, the only bump in the road was getting the stock deck to recognize the new aux input. I had to disconnect and reconnect it a couple of time for the HU to accept the input. Thanks again to all the great info here on the forum.

awesome. i was happy with mine as well. I also went with a similar adpater simply because of its ease of use. I didnt mind taking the HU out as that is really easy to do in the c5's. glad you like it. Enjoy!!! dont let the bug bite telling you that it could sound a little better this is what happened to me

Do you have the 12 disc CD changer? Did you have to disconnect it?

I don't have the CD changer but from what I understand you can add this

and you can retain the use of both.
