having a bad week so far

dodger

this week is not going well 🙁

1) Dropped laptop and screen broke, but seems to be repairable

2) On the way to work this morning the CD Changer wasn't playing a CD, so left it. Went out lunchtime and tried again and still nothing, went to eject the magazine and nothing, it was stuck. turned off the headunit and the changer was still trying to eject it, Damm, borrowed a torx driver to take the glovebox out and disconnected it.

Now i'm looking for a cheap working CDR500 or a CAR400

Not good mate, and bad things usually happen in 3, so hope the next thing is something small.

not a good week 🙁

I have an almost unused alpine CD from my old vectra gathering dust in my garage, make me an offer and it's yours :thumbup:

I will have to go and find out the model as it was many years ago I bought it new.

Thanks for the offer Neil, it's very appreciated, can i rig it up the the display and steering wheel controls?

I think you could buy an adaptor lead for it, but never bothered as we sold the car
