I found an Alpine CD changer, an Ai-Net version (CD-S624 is the model) - bought it to use with my Intravee switch as I dont want to lose the changer functionality - have the KCA 420, the Intravee switch and all I need now is to buy the Intravee II and some cables (I think!) ...... does that sound right Sanj???

If the Alpine components come with their cables then you will need one extra cable for the Intravee switch.

BMW -> Intravee uses the BMW CD Changer connectors.
Intravee -> Switch requires one AI-Net cable.
Switch -> CD Changer uses the 5m AI-Net cable that should come with the changer.
Switch -> KCA-420i uses the 2m AI-Net cable that should come with the KCA-420i.

Apart from the odd AI-Net extension cable that comes up on e-bay (with one male and one female end) all AI-Net cables have the same functionality regardless of length. Usually with the Intravee you want the shortest cables you can get, but using longer ones is not a problem if there is a place to locate the bundle of wire.

Exactly what I was gonna say!
