Can you swap a NAV stock unit for in CD radio? I already have a CD changer.

You can swap out the Nav for an in-dash player (6 disc or single disc), but cannot reuse the changer. The other two head units have no way to interface with that changer.

What do you know about the changer? I see it is made by Pioneer. Do changers have a common method of connection to head units? If possible, I'd like to swap my CD changer out for a Mini-Disc changer.Thanks.

Nope. No can do. As far as I know, the only company that made MD changers is Sony, and you can only interface sony changers with sony HU. The fact that the Nav system has a Pioneer changer is a misnomer. The changer uses the GM 12pin interface, and not IP-Bus (the Pioneer standard). You might be able to change the changer for another GM 6-disc, but that's probably it. I don't think anyone makes a GM 12-pin interface to a Sony changer.Also, Mike is correct, neither the stock 1-disc or the in-dash 6-disc will work with the Nav changer.
