Am having trouble removing the cd changer from the trunk of my 2001 xkr convertible. It looks like there are four Phillips screws holding it in, but there is no way to get a screwdriver on them - the bracket holding everything is only 3/4 inch or so away. Any help, please?

 

Welcome to the forum!

There are two gold colored hex screws on the top of the black chassis, and another two on the upper sides of the black chassis.

Remove all four of these. Then the inner rack can be slid out from the outer chassis. At this point you can remove any screws retaining the CD changer.

Please join us in the XK8 / XKR forum for future technical questions. This section is for intros only.

 

Many thanks for your super prompt reply. I shall both join the XK forum and give your suggestion a try. Thanks again,
Ben

 

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

 

Thanks, Norri! How does one go about doing that?
Great site!

 

Got it out perfectly! Cleaned and lubed it, but still "No Disc." The disc transporting works fine - have a feeling the opticals are gone.

Thanks again!
Ben
