Hello -

Anyone know if an aftermarket cd changer would work with the stock radio for a 2002 Jaguar X Type 2.5?

Also, what size speakers go in the front doors and rear doors?

Thanks!

it is an alpine changer... so you may be able to get one to work..often the OEM have the connector changed or sometimes they re configure the pins so it wont work when you plug it in.. but if you are handy.. then you can most likely make it work.

I heards someone here say there was an optic cable to the Jag changer.... not sure if this is true.

 

Here's an entry borrowed from the last time this was reveiwed (about 25 postings down)

Better speakers do make a BIG difference!!!

Took about two hours to do all the mods for the front speakers. I didnt do the backs yet. Its actually "3 screws". One on the arm rest and two at the very bottom, after that its just "tender force". Theres a tension cable on the door handle but thats just a quick release.

6 1/2" speakers will fit but with slight modification, they fit the hole but dont line up with the screws. The factory speakers are enclosed in a plastic housing which makes the speaker a little bigger then 6 1/2". Just extend the holes with a homemade bracket and you should be fine. I secured everything with a little silicon and a few tie wraps.

The highs and the bass response was the most noticable.
