Default CD Changer dead, what is best solution? 2000

Hello all, I found a lot of old stuff, but I need to know what mod I can do best to replace my CD changer, perhaps with an IPod, or an alternative WITHOUT pulling the dash apart.

Thanks in advance!

Hit up C5 Bears Fan aka DoubleD Mods. He's got a unit that plugs into the wiring harness of your changer that will allow you to use an IPod or MP3 player.
In addition to being a supporting vendor here, he's also a great guy to deal with.

I agree, Dennis at DDMODS has what you need to hook up an ipod, You can't beat his service or prices.
Mr.Bill
If you want to hook it up to where the changer was this is the kit for that.

If you want to remove your radio and hook it up to the back of it this is what you need.

Double check with Dennis to make sure.

When my CD changer hit the crapper, I put in an iPod adapter and ran the line up to the ash tray. The whole setup cost @ $85 and was very easy to install.
