Small, fits in VWs stock with a $20 adapter from crutchfield.com, 8 discs, quick changes when precached.

Can only access 6 discs directly from a VW head unit, disc swaps that aren't from sequential discs take about 10 seconds

Fits in a VW with no trouble whatsoever. I swear, I did this mod in the parking lot of the post office and was bangin' to Jurassic Five all the way to work. It's small, smaller than most 6 disc changers, and it'll fix anywhere. In the P., there's a little hatch for a sub into which the 801 had plenty of room and secured nicely with the supplied pieces of double sided tape. Hardly ever skips, although it can't take bumps like my old Phillips handheld CD player could. The 8 disc carts are sort of flimsy, but you're not gonna be stressing them much. My suggestion is to keep a couple extras so you're not constantly popping them open to put new discs in.

This unit has been replaced by the DP88, pretty much the same unit with better skip protection. But unless you take speed bumps at 40 mph (which i have been known to do to test the Bilsteins), you're gonna be fine.
