Audio Systems: Remove Radio_CD Player, toyota avalon xls, installing car audio


Question
I have a 2001 Toyota Avalon XLS and I need to remove the cover of my Radio-CD player. There is a CD stuck in there and the Toyota Dealer wants to charge me $400 just to examine it, and another $300 to replace it if it is inoperatable. If I can get the cover off, I can probably remove the CD. Please advise.

Answer
this radio is not easy to repair  you need a good service center that works with panasonic or eclipse unit, they made your factory radio

i been installing car audio for the past 20 years most of my time is in a car and i know a lot about radios , i have repair a few when it is a electronic problem  
i have  open 4 radios with stuck discs inside,  at the end i destroy all 4 of them or cause more problems this are not easy to work on , don't waste your time and  pay some one to do that not the dealer

you can also buy a rebuild unit from oemautosund.com


good luck
