I have the 2004 Subaru Forester 2.5x

One of the optional extras is a clarion 6 disc stacker. As pictured in the
link below.

Anybody purchased this item? If so can somone please tell me how it
interfaces with the head unit.
(I.E. Cable, RF, optical etc) and which model number is used.

My '98 Suzuki radio was made by Clarion. It had the round Din plug on the
back for the changer option.

You 'should' be able to use any Clarion changer within the same series/year
or so..

Seems like the factory unit installed. readio/single cd is a very basic No
Name head
unit. It just has a sticker on it with a model number PF2593B-B and made in
China. But no extra external connections at all.

So I'm assuming the to install the factory accessory, A Clarion 6 disk
stacker they would have to replace the head unit as well to accomodate the
installation of the stacker unit. To take into account the $479 including
installation they are charging for the unit.

I since found its just a basic Clarion unit.

Matched the part numbers with an older head unit (clearly marked clarion)
from another Subaru.
the older one has radio/tape with a clarion c-bus din on the back. The
current one in the Subaru Forester is the basic model just radio/cd without
any external connections at all.

So im assuming they just replace the head unit to install the Clarion 6 cd
stacker that is available as an extra accessory
