IS THIS THE PART THAT IS NEEDED WHEN YOU HAVE THAT F#CKEN CD ERROR FO or does it have to be the whole HU and the cd changer???

No, that's just the trim in front of the stereo that holds the stereo controls and the A/C. F0 means the in-dash changer can't change/play disks. You need to change the stereo behind the faceplate.

I've looked into places that repair the Bose cd changer and most charge around $300-400. You're probably better off finding a stock stereo for sale by someone who's upgrading to an aftermarket system.

Or buy an aftermarket headunit like me when my went on the fritzz.

sh*t thanks alot guys i appreciate it
