Hi, I'm trying to help a Mate, with the removal of a CD that is stuck in his bakkies radio.
Has anyone done this before ?
I have removed the entire unit and there is usually a release mechanism, but I can't locate
it.
Please HELP . . . :?
Thanx
Gaz

Re: Stuck CD
If you've already removed the unit you might as well open it up and remove the CD by manually advancing the eject mechanism. 
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Stuck CD
Only know how to get it out of a CD-writer or a Hi-fi or portable CD player... not a bakkie

Re: Stuck CD
I have had to do this before out of my wife’s old OLD Panasonic CD player. What I did was remove the unit. Unscrewed the 4 or 6 screws at the bottom of the unit then I lifted the magnetic thing holding the disc against the lens and tilted the unit and the CD came sliding out. I do know with certain SONY headunits there is a little lever which once the cover is off you can see and if you pull this lever back it lifts and ejects the CD. Hope you come right.
