So another DIY job been putting it off since we got car. 

The cd player is messed up.

Want to get replacement off eBay. Two silly questions

 

1.if part number is same then is it simply plug and play or would it require coding 

2.currently car has sensors no reversing camera. If installed one could it be a OEM style where it works on screen when selecting reverse. 

If so is there hardware wire ports ect on existing unit or would additional hardware be required 

And as above would a camera need to be installed also please see attached link seen this so wondered is is a easier option

Once again thanks in advance 

Yep same part number cd player shouldn't need coding. 

Regarding the camera id recommend you speak to auto retrofits or autologics about what's involved. 

Thanks Steve appreciate it

I was under the impression, due to thefts and the illicit market in stolen/stripped cars and subsequent spare parts, that things like the CD Player and other infotainment components, amongst others, were coded to the VIN of the originating vehicle? If so then they would need to have the vehicle identity changed before they work in a new, or different, vehicle?

 

I may very well be wrong, but this is what I was told when earlier looking for a component (it eventually turned out I did not need).

 

I hope that makes sense, and I'm sorry I cannot answer definitively.
