rebuilding FD CD players...
As a result of my many hours of efforts to repair my stock FD radio stack, I am likely going to have a few of these players available soon.
I have access to the parts and have registered to get them wholesale.
If there is a demand for these CD players, I will rebuild them with some speed and regularity very likely for less than you might think.
I welcome feedback on this....

Supernaut, no, I do not need a "dealer account" or a "vendor account" to do "this" here.
I'm not offering prices, I'm not offering anything other than the opportunity for people to comment on whether or not I should start this service.
Should I ever start this service, I will post it in the other places that those kind of things are supposed to be advertised.
I merely want opinions on what folks think.

My question is.. What it be possible to have a "high output" version of the early cd players that came in these cars?
I hate having an aftermarket deck in my car, but I do like post 90's speakers lol.
Either way, I'm sure some people would be interested but how many is the question.

I know you're not here to talk about pricing, but if you could "recondition" a factory CD player by having it be fully functioning, cleaned up, and maybe even freshen the buttons to not look as worn I think that'd be a nice service to offer. Good used CD players seem to go for between $50-$100 depending on the condition (I bought one this year), so I'd think that if you could stay in that price range for a rebuilt/refreshed unit that people would take you up on it.

I was just pointing out that I'm his market as I have zero desire to replace the factory looking head unit with anything else. If his service was just to fix my broken cd player I would pay around $50 for it. If he freshened up the look/feel of it I would probably pay closer to $100.
You are correct that many other people are more content with using modern radios instead.

I think it would be a great service! I recently bought a 93 and the CD player was DOA. I want to keep the stock look so I sent it to Southern Electronics in Richmond VA and they had to rebuild it. It cost a good bit of money. BTW had them repair my AM/FM radio/tape deck as well and it also cost alot. The tuner was no longer available for the radio so they basically had to build a new one for me. Both units work great now! If I could have gotten it done cheaper by a forum member I probably would have done that. Maybe you could have people send you their CD players and charge for the repair service.
