If you want to connect one to your existing head unit, you'll need to check that the CD player is "CD player ready", and then stump up whatever ridiculous price Skoda are charging for one...some manufacturers (I know Sony do one) also do one which will fit, but will cost you much the same as the Skoda one.

If you're not bothered about keeping the Skoda head unit, you can probably get a head unit (which will sound better than the Skoda HU) and CD changer package for less money than the changer.
For example:
http://www.caraudiocentre.co.uk/prod...?product=20652 - £129.99

Or if, you want to be even cheaper (and don't mind loosing the Skoda head unit), you can get MP3 CD head units - it's only a single slot CD player, but you could easily get as many albums onto a single CD as MP3s as you'd be able to get in a CD changer. Easier to install too, as all you're doing is swapping the head unit.
