Hi Chris, A few days ago I went in the back of my 900 SE cabrio and removed the soft cloth on the left side. Behind it I found a lot of cables that went to the tail lichts. Bundled with it I found a loose cable that doesnt fit. It was tye'd together with the other cables with tyrip's I had to cut a few. Their was my CD changer cable. My car is from 96. Hope you can do sommething with this info.
