you can take apart the CD player, but it'll wreck it, and it's a bitch to do.

Do what Nspec said though.

You can pull the whole HU out and put 12volt power to it.

You can connect it to a computer's power supply:


(for the record, the cd changer was already jacked up on mine, so my cousin and I were messing around with it)

Not too hard to do, if you need more info, ask.

Well he did say that he totaled his CL, so I don't think he'll be too concerned about breaking apart the CD player to get to his CDs..

dont think any of these will work and it's too much trouble

the car is already appraised as is so i wont be able to break the cd player and it seems hella work to pull out the actual player..

as for the battery, i think the connection is cut or something so it'd be hard to get power.

i was hoping there was some force eject like the cd player on your computer.. dang it. thanks though

Take a jumper cable from the battery to the passenger side under hood fuse panel. There is a spot to have a friend hold it or hook it up there. Get power to that and you will be able to power the radio up to eject the CDs in the car
