my tape player stopped playing, replaced it with a newer one from my brother's totalled car, it worked for a while and stopped too. One of them would just not play, the other would play but not eject! (the Groundhog's Day special?).
Most people that I know that have mid 80s BMW have non functional tape players, or new radios!


Heh guys,

I just tried using my cassette player for the first time
(original) and geuss what. Its stuck. Makes noises like
its trying to do somthing but wont come out. I saw one
post in the archives suggesting pulling the radio and messing with the mechanicisms. Is that my only alternative? I dont have the tool to pull the radio. Is there somthing special about it. Maybe this is a good time to buy a new head unit. Saw the Blauplunkt Sydney at crutchfield for $150. Is that a good unit? I have a sony 10 cd changer.
Been thinking about pulling the sony and putting it in my wifes car and then later buying the bluaplunkt changer to
go with the Sydney. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Merry Christmas
Scott
