Yea ... usually you have to buy a Ford CD changer and connect it to the wiring that's already been fitted to your Ka. As usual, Ford overcharge on their changers which will have a non-standard connector that will only connect to your wiring but ..... there are other CD changers out there that will fit using an adapter plug and are much cheaper. The only problem I can foresee is the problem of controlling it from your existing player. My Mondeo was easy as I fitted a CD changer to a Ford 6000CD head unit which also controlled the changer. I'm sure there are other people who have done exactly what you are after so hopefully you will get the exact answer you are after. Hope this helps Chris
