ok so I have this pioneer head unit... and the damned thing doesn't play burned CDs when it is hot... so in the summer during the day my burned CDs will not play...

ok so I can live w/ that... BUTlast week my CD was stuck in there and it won't come out!when I hit reject it makes this rapid clicking sound....

umm should I just pull the damned CD out w/ a pair of tweezers? i'm afraid it'll hurt the unit but then again... the unit can be replaced...

i would just go get a kenwood head unit, kenwood has the best head units and screens out right now. Most decks have 3 rca outputs, internal crossovers, internal amp controller and everyoption you will ever need. My deck did what yours did and it was just an excuse for me to go get my kenwood

On pioneer head units (and most others) you can pull the cover off without any screws. Just pull the radio off. Pull the cover off and you can have easy access to get your cd out without damaging anything.

theres a perfectly fine forum for this. the cd player thing is a problem i had in my 240 and altima. when it gets to hot it doesnt play and the altima would take a day or so to eject. I suggest like everyone getting a new h/u and kenwood is by far not the BEST out their, and i own one. kenwood is a fine h/u if you want bang for your buck (also panasonic). If you need top of the line naki, eclipse, and certain alpines.

The entirety of Ezekiel 25:17 reads as follows; And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them. Good thing your quoting Sammy and not the Bible.

With any front loading CD device, the key is finding the mechanical switch and main drive gear. Some can be done just by fiding the right gear and turning it. Others you need to pushe up a mechanical gear switch to engage the right gear while you turn the appropriate gear. Once it initiates moving the CD out, you should be able to just keep turning the gear. Kenwoods are a pain in the butt as far as this is concerned. Had to do this a couple of months ago. A Pioneer I did many years ago was much easier.

I don't drive around the streets with that vid-camera mounted.That would be just weird and retarded (although peoplewould think I'm some sorta undercover officer) :D

There's nothing on my car car that would lead wouldbe thievesto break in, other then my rims and a missing deck faceplate(which shows I have an aftermarket one).

Other then that, the car looks bone stock. :)
