[s-cars] CD Changer woes - AGH!

[Bruce Mendel]

First, let me say that I hold all of the people that told me it was "no
problem" responsible for my current lack of CD audio. Please paypal me $1.14
each, and I think that should cover my loss. :)

Seriously, all that comes out of the Sony is a DIN plug that is identical in
looks and size (but not sure about pinout wiring) to the one on my OEM
changer. So it plugs in to the adapter box, display on radio and dash look
fine, but no audio.

There is no place to hook up audio cables on either the CD changer or my
adapter box. So what else could I need?
