To those whom have lowered their gti, and still use the OE Multichanger and headunit, does it still function perfectly without skipping or any other adverse effects
I am not into ICE, but like my music in the car (and it can often pacify the kids
).
Please no suggestions of upgrades, i'm perfectly happy with the sound produced
. Well ok, bass could be a little deeper, but I can't sacrifice any of my boot space !
Thanks,
Marc.

Mine is lowered 50mm on Eibach springs, and yeah the multichanger still works fine

As you know Marc mine is lowered on FK coilovers and is down 60mm. No worries here, it hasn't missed a beat!
As for the changer itself I'm planning to remove mine from the boot, flog it on eBay and purchase a dash-mounted OE multichanger instead. Like you I need the boot space and it sometimes gets in the way. Plus I don't use the cubby hole under my GAMMA headunit so its win - win

Cheers for the replies fella's. Glad to hear performance isn't impaired and that it can cope with being jolted around a bit more !
Si, yes the changer does get in the way I agree. The dash mounted changers are very good and so convenient. I retro-fitted one to my bora, and when I sold that, the Passat already had one.

The like the bit under the stereo for space. I still got my multichanger in the boot even though it's redundant. Keeping it for when I eventually sell the car...if I ever do that is
