Ok, so I just noticed my cd player doesnt work. I have the bose system, and I just bought the car yesterday, but just tried putting a cd in, and it would not allow me to load it. I have done some research and have discovered that this is a fairly common problem. I am going to go the crutchfield.com route and order a new replacement din for the one I have and put an aftermarket head unit in there. I was wondering if there were any locals (Tacoma, Spanaway, Puyallup up to Seattle EVEN!) that had any experience with this. I like to think of myself somewhat car audio savvy, but this makes me a little nervoud due to the mating of the HVAC controls integrating with the stereo motherboard. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated

 

you need a jdm double din unit that replaces the bose headunit and integrated HVAC controls
