Dudey52 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 My 2008 350z bose headunit won't read CD's anymore Anyone got a spare one that works? Thanks Quote
Kryptek49 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 I'll be pulling mine out in a couple of months to put in an android auto HU, if you can wait then it will be up for sale. Quote
Dudey52 Posted August 27, 2018 Author Posted August 27, 2018 Oh right, two months a bit too long. Thanks anyway Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) You do know that you have to unregister the hu from the car before you can then use it in another one. Every Bose unit is linked to the ECU. So it's not just as simple as plug and play. Edited August 28, 2018 by The Bounty Bar Kid Quote

Thanks 2 I have a fully working one from a 350Z HR which was divorced properly from the donor vehicle which will work in your HR once programmed. Just drop me a PM if I can help further. Quote

I tried several local auto electrical specialists and none could code a unit for me. You can swap out the CD changers if you get a secondhand headunit and have the desire to fix it. Personally unless you buy from someone like zmanalex, i wouldn't bother. Also the CD fault is common so your best bet is to upgrade now while you can and then you can also have DAB. If you do upgrade just remember that you need the fascia, harness and the steering wheel adaptors for it to all fit nicely. Quote
