Default Car prewired for CD player?

I picked up a jag CD player for my 308 so that I can also add in the wiring hack to install a T605 for my bluetooth i-devices. Haven't dug around in the boot (didn't manage to score a cover, but it came with the mounting rack...so, will dig around and see if there are any of those around...) yet, but, before I do, I'm wondering if the car loom was pre-wired for the CD player?

Anyone? It would be great if they did...but, if not...hmmmm...but the price was right...

TIA.

Yes the car has the CD harness with the round plug in the left area of the boot (behind the carpet liner).

The body also has the 'rivnuts' in the floor for the mount bracket.

You will need to cut your carpet liner or find one already cut for the CD changer.

OOOH....rivnuts (used to use them extensively in a previous life as an aircraft wrench...). I LOVE rivnuts. Even have the proper tool to install them...LOL.

Thanks for the info; I would have assumed that this was the case (in the event a new owner decided at some point post-signing-for-the-thing when new that their cassette collection was dwindling and their CD collection was increasing Back In The Day, and wanted to add the player in.

Thanks for the info, Bob.
