CD changer
OK, I'm ready to tackle my next 'issue' with my whip. The CD changer in the trunk. I hate the concept of changer in the trunk anyway but this validates my hatred.
I bought the car, never checked the CD player/changer (not a priority at the time). I then decided to give it a try and loaded one of my CDs. When I took the mag out, it already had about 4 or 5 CDs in it. (If they were in there after the sale that should have tipped me off that the previous owner couldn't get them out...). OK, so I load my CD in, get in the car and hit the CD selector on the headunit. It says 'No magazine'. I should have known. I went back to the trunk to take the mag out and it now won't come out. Can somebody offer up any information/help on this issue? I'm considering changing the headunit to an Audio 10 unit which is basically the same as the stock unit but has a direct single CD load. Forget the trunk deal. Any suggestions folks?

I've seen this issue addressed on this and the "other" site, so I'd do a little more research here or hit the audio forums. BTW, the audio 10 is definitely better than the stock HU (more watts, RDS, better signal, etc) plus it has the CD player in the HU. Good luck.
