Have you tried the specialist breakers like steve strange, 9apart etc? Thanks bud, I appreciate it. Steve strange hasn’t got anything at the moment, there’s a couple actually on eBay in Germany but crazy money at nearly 300 posted, and a shady character selling everything for 400, just seems greedy to me. I’ll keep looking, must be something somewhere for reasonable money 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daboy3000 Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 I saw a mint one pop up near me for £100, but took too long to decide and it went, ended getting a slightly rougher one from a house clearance, completely untested for £40ish. I was so pleased when it fired up! Just a couple of months ago they were averaging about £150 on ebay. If I see anything I'll let you know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daboy3000 Posted November 10, 2022 Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 Make sure it has the serial number on it or it will be very tricky to get the code. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, however the CR is just a tape player I think, is it definitely not a CDR? If it is a CDR then I'll have it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That unit is now up and running but only works intermittently for radio and has no CD function so I have also been keeping an eye out for an original head unit. I quite fancy the idea of a cassette player in a 90's era vehicle and could also be interested if Freddie doesn't take it off your hands. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradders59 Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) I have a CDC3 and amp which I removed from my car because it has an aftermarket unit fitted. Freddie and I have been messaging one another about it as it might be of use to him. I dont know the condition or indeed value as the changer and amp are disconnected. so a few questions for those who know more than I do. Ive seen the amp described as an antenna amplifier. Is that what it is ? And if so will Freddie need it to go with the headunit he has ? The CDC3 unit has a lead with a red connector and a white connector. Are these for power. If so, can I put + and - from a battery to the red and white to at least see if the unit powers up ? Will attempt to upload some pics. Amp. http://[url=https://postimg.cc/GBNg57t3][img]https://i.postimg.cc/TwY8hBXb/IMG_1521.jpg[/img][/url] Changer http://[url=https://postimg.cc/F7gqHVWG][img]https://i.postimg.cc/02LqZtpg/IMG_1525.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://postimg.cc/75KWgYy2][img]https://i.postimg.cc/vmywwcq3/IMG_1528.jpg[/img][/url] Nope, cant manage to upload pics.

Bradders59 Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Sticker on the amp says 4x40w so its obviously not just an antenna amplifier, so that clears up one question. Should have noticed that before asking the question . Would like to know if the red / white plugs are for power and is it safe to assume the power would be 12v ? And is it possible to find out if the changer actually works ok somehow, without attaching it to a car with original headunit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not put 12v to them. 😵💫 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
