in aug when i purchased the car and the day i took it home the cd player was jammed and i was uninformed of that at point of sale. so i complained and the dealership (private dealer) so they ordered me one from a junkyard.. plus the seat motor was out so i had them replace that part also.. just not a good experience from the beginnging, so i got the replacement installed it, and it skipped.. dealership tried to tell me that it was due to the fact that it was a known issue with these model cars which is correct but i still wanted a working cd player. so the place had one more in stock or else they would of refund the money since they did not have anymore, i installed it and it worked (for now).. just was a bit frustrated because i wanted to literally pull out my cd changer and smash it with a bat because a skipping cd is very annoying, what happened was that i managed to unclip the wrong portion of the adapter while behind the dash. everything is a go now, and my replacement cd changer works! i'm looking to go aftermarket and i am aware that it can stop working anytime soon but at least i have something that works now...
thanks again Andy and IS.
