Title: CCRT CD player front flap
Post by: Omegadoha, Desert Member on 06 December 2008, 16:53:45

Just got back to the UK to pick up a replacement CCRT 2008. Is the CD player door flap mechanically operated? Because at the moment it is stuck open. It moves but just wont snap shut. I don't know whether it has to have power connected to it. Also ther is no magazine in it.

Thanks

thats an idea. Shame though as this one is in a better condition, other than the flap not shutting. Is it fairly easy to remove the cover?

Thanks

Reasonably easy.

The mecanism is actualy easy enough to remove on its own once the cover is off so possible to keep the better facia

Thank you, that would be great. Incidentally I had a closer look at the flap and there appear to be two small tabs on the opening flap and two small tabs on the plastic receiving part. It looks like these tabs prevent the flap from fully shutting. Just wondering whether these tabs need to be filed down.

I would also be interested in the photos TB. Mine doesnt quite sit right since i pulled out head unit a while back. If you get a mo...
The cage does not quite sit in the middle either, it makes the unit look off centre to the surrounding switches, and it also catches the ash tray slightly
when closing.
