have a look see if there is a plug in the left hand side of the boot,
if the plug is there you can most probably add a changer failing that you will need the lead from a scrap/donor car,

mines not GTX, and i do have the CD changer in the boot and sunroof .. and in about a week or so cruise control too hihihi, i guess the wires is there because they made this model based on the GTX ( because i think all GTX have sunroof) , and then the client would select what he wanted ... OR the client requested this car to have this and that, then they just worked on a GTX model and changed little stuff like the wiper stalk not having trip computer and disabled it on BSI etc.. This is why my friend's estate that is 3 months younger doesn't have the extra wiring, because his model doesn't have the CD changer and doesn't have sunroof .. Instead he's had a CD player headunit , ashwood on door cards, trip computer from serie, and the door sill protector saying peugeot, mine misse's all this, but then again i added trip computer, and will do cruise control .. basically mine is better then he's ..

By the way, where is the JBL Amp located ? i searched on the right of the boot, but couldn't find it, or it is hidden somewhere else, i do found was a ruber with 3 round things ( that looked like it was supposed to pass wires through it ) maybe for the SAT NAV thing ?

I believe the amp is next to the changer, the other side is for the sat nav

It's further inside the left-side compartment than the CD changer cartridge is. If it's there, you'll just see a black box - it looks like this:

The picture shows the top of the amp - on the bottom, there are two connectors - one will be the outputs to the speakers, and the other will be the input from the HU and the power supply.

Hope this helps.

Hi highlander, so, i'll need to remove the cd changer, then the amp is underneath it ? because from what i could see, there is no space for it even behind the cd changer or even in the sides of it ..

In my cars manual says that my car is equipped with the JBL's amp although my speakers are harmen .. i supose that i do have the amp because the sound is great even loud ...i'll have to check it better ..

I will take a photo tomorrow showing the position of the amp in relation to the CD changer - note that this will be in the Coupe; not sure whether this is different from the JBL-equipped saloons/estates as I've had neither of these.
