Modifying Kenwood KDC-X469 to KDC-X569 (car cd player)

[[email protected]]

Is it possible to modify the '469' model to the '569' model? The '569'
model can play mp3's. Both of these units look identical and I am
betting they are virtually the same on the inside. In, addition, where
can I get service manual/schematics for both of these?

TIA

It is the uPC chip, and the EPROM firmware that is different. Check to see
in that series, if the decoder chip is also a different series. This is not
an easy mod. The outside case may look the same, but there is more inside
to do the decoding.
