    Hey
    I suppose this is the best place for this.
    Anyway, driving to work the other morning and my friend asks can he put on a cd. I said fire away and then realised I didn't see him taking one out.
    He had managed to slide the cd in fairly easy despite there already being one in there.
    Now there's two cd's in there and I've tried using tweezer, knives etc but they won't budge.
    This ever happen to anyone else?

    Take the CD unit out of the dash, there will be holes in the cage that you can poke through to get the disc out

    Might just try that, thanks.
    Hopefully I'll be able to get the thing back in ok!

    getting the stereo back in is no bother, getting it out is the tricky bit!

    Maybe try gripping the two discs (if you can see them), or even the top one, then press eject and apply a gentle pull with the tweezers? Presume you will need a long tweezers for this.

    Once you have the stereo out remove the top cover - usually by removing a couple of screws and some tabs. From there it will be easy to remove both CDs. Just don't force anything - tease them out gently.

    BTW, what brand of stereo is it?

    It's a sony stereo, good few years old i reckon. I had a grip on the top cd but just couldn't get it out. I'll have another shot at it tomorrow!
