Hey guys
So my stacker is pretty messed. It works, but skips really badly. To the point where you can really listen to CDs anymore. Ive been thinking about getting an iPod wired up, but I have no idea how to do it and I know the quality wont be nearly as good. So Im pretty keen to try and fix the stacker. The one company I called, Alberts, charge $150-200 to remove and send the stacker up to Perth. Apparently they then clean it blah blah blah. And the other guy I spoke to said he'd clean the laser or something for $25 if I could get the stacker out for him to work on.
So Im just looking for some advise here. Ive heard cleaning CDs work. Is this the case though? Is there a tutorial anywhere on how to get the stacker out or is it fairly straight forward?

assuming you dont have a double din space get a head unit that has ipod 'control' and get rid of your stacker and all your cds. dont know who said ipod music is a poorer quality than cds but they are mistaken the quality of music depends on the bit rate of the song and of course your sound system

to remove its not too hard but im not very familiar with the emv's, as in there might be some thing you have to do in order to remove the stacker to prevent damage. depends on what you want........ if you want to keep the stacker setup id invest in more research and be careful as every thing in the soarer is about 20 years old, if you want to change it in the near future rip it out and sort out a show car system lol

Stacker is easy to remove, peel away your boot lining and you'll see the few bolts that need to be taken out and a few of the leads that will need unplugging. No damage will be made to the EMV. The stacker's are getting quite old now so it will all depend on whether you can get a decent one in good working order as to whether your sound quality will increase or not.
