Default 12 cd changer
I just bought a very nice 2004 and found that it had the 12 CD changer in the middle cubby hole in the trunk. Sliding the door to the right on the unit is supposed to eject the CD holder so that you can swap them out. Unfortunately all mine does is make strange clicking sounds and nothing happens..... closed the door and it still kept making noises.... finally did the old smack it a good one and it stopped noise making but I am still not able to eject the holder.... any easy way to make this eject? Don't want to mess up anything by brute force, screwdivers etc.... best to get some advice first! Thanks for any help! Courtney

Hmmm. I like mine it works perfectly and I wouldn't take it out... The alternative is a radio with loads of commercials or pay XM...

My alternative was to put a nice DD with bluetooth and flashdrive. I've got hours of music on that. It even made those crappy Bose speakers sound good with this Pioneer head unit installed.

It's a few years old now. I think it's a 4400 or something like that. It's under the car cover or I would go take a look at it.
