Ha ha, oops

The other day my friend got a new head unit in his car so his 6 disc pioneer cd chagner wouldnt work with his new head unit. i traded him his cd changer for my broke equalizer, knowning it can be fixed for a flat fee of 70 bucks.

This morning i mounted my new cd changer to the right side of my sub box.. i didnt think the rattling of the sub would make it skip because i turned up the stereo and felt the side.. didnt feel too much vibration, so didnt think it would be a problem

well.. sure enough, turned on the cd player and put some prodigy in there... and boom! *skip* boom! *skip*

hehe.. looks like its time to find a new place to mount it

Doh:pat: I've got my 10 disk changer in one of the cubby holes in the back. Just used a strip of that industrial size velcro and when you want to change the disk you just pull it out. I also stick a couple rags in there just for vibration dampening.. It rarely skips unless it's from a scratch.

Hey... i call that's a good mistake because it seemed to be a very good idea. I probably would have done the same. Good luck is your next install.
