Hi,
I bought, one month a go a nice 1997 318i with only 75,000 m. The car does not have a CD player. So I am looking to get an OEM one for the trunk. Is the wiring already there? If yes what should I look for?
Thanks

I believe(but can't find any thing to back it up) that from 1997 on they were all wired for a cd player. On mine the cable comes into the boot in the top right hand corner at the back(next to the back seats) but it might be on the other side if the car is left hand drive.

According to this Pelican Parts article,

"all E36s are pre-wired from the factory"
