The exact reason I haven't dared try mine yet. I'm afraid, so afraid. Does the radio work? I have not yet got advice from anyone recommending fixing Bose at all. I would imagine that you'd have to pull the head unit out, disassemble to remove the CD or Casette.

Welcome to the world of your screwed in the C4 Bose Radio world. They always break and the CD goes too. I recommend Dr. Don's Radio service, Did a great job for me and I did the upgrade. I have no affiliation with him. http://www.doctordons.com/corvetteradios.htm

Dr. Don's did an excellent job for me. The communication and the turn around was very good. I think the charges were fare also.

I've never heard of doctor don but he's one of my favorites on my computer now. I'd love to have my rear speakers redone and then I'll try the CD and cassette. Ha Ha.

If you are not hung up on keeping your car original, dump the Bose and buy a new unit. Crutchfield has a number of radio's in various price ranges that offer more functionality (Bluetooth, USB, Pandora, Hi-Def, Navigation). Just replaced mine with a new Kenwood and what a difference, should have done it years ago. If originality is what you want, Dr. Don has a very good reputation.

when i bought my 90 the bose was already changed. i replaced that with a clarion double din dvd player. has bluetooth built in and is great because i can crank up the tunes and if my phone rings it kills the cd,radio, or ipod so i dont miss a call. only bad thing is now when the wife calls i cant use the excuse i didnt hear the phone ring Big smile
