Am I knackered or can the deck just be swapped out?

Hi
yes, radio unit is coded to VIN so cant be swapped BUT actual CD changer/mechanism is not. It is just a mechanical component connected to unit and to my knowledge - can be swapped without issue.
If someone else can confirm this, just to be certain?
