Default 6 Disc DVD Changer

My LS430 2001 6 Disc DVD Changer got some problem.. I think either the disc stuck or something stuck in there.. I just need to take it out and fix it.. and it seems my mechanics don't know how to do it either.. so is there an instruction show you how to take that DVD Changer out? if it's not fixable is there any unit that I can buy to replace it? I want to replace the whole thing (tape, dvd, gps ) with something new, better that will fit in the exact slot.. thanks

I found the following forum posting perfect for installing a Vaistech unit (which requires taking the audio system as well as the nav screen). This should help you in removal of the audio system.

dealership's don't fix stuff, they replace stuff. you can probably replace with the 04-06 nav/audio unit, but wont be a big difference.

I have the stuck cd problem too in our LS430. Let us know if you find a shop in Southern California that can repair the cd changer.
