Babybel Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 This happend to my Dad's player on his old Escort... in the end he had to go to Halfords for a new CD player as it got worse and it got on our nerves. They are quite cheap in Halfords tbh. I got an mp3 player one for £30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babybel Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Aye it is annoying. When I got my car the first time it already had a cd player in but the bracket at the back had snapped off so everytime I went over a speed bump my cd player would fly out! lol. Tried to get this small triangle bracket to support it but I couldnt buy it on it's own so I had to buy the whole surround to get the bracket which cost £25... FAIL! Hope you can get your tunes sorted soon, it's not nice when you cant listen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just get a new cd player gutted tho because this time last year i had a nice kenwood one in my clio but stupid me sold it with my clio wish i never did now lol another thing if i get a after market cd player if i take out the old ford one and put in me new cd player iam going to end up with a big gap because you know the size of those ford ones so iam just wondering is there a plate you can get to cover the hole up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babybel Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I know what you mean, I have a KA and in Halfords you can buy the surround which covers the gap. Thats what I had to get to help support my cd player. They cost around £25 and should have them for the Fiesta as it's a popluar car!

Babybel Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Aye I agree but I do find them good for electirc things and I just act dumb and get them to do things for me... for example test my battery to see why it's going flat! At least that is free for them to dignose the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
