stock stereo question

[eessek]

hey yall...just recently purchased a pro and the CD player doesnt work. I looked around for headunits...but I've come to like the look of the stock cd player (If there was way to change the green backlight to blue..it'd be ever so beautiful). So i was wondering where I could get a replacement stock stereo from. It'd probably have to involve calling mazda OR i kno alot of you guys have stock units lying around cuz im sure half you guys have aftermarket stereo stuff..if anyone is willing to sell theres cheap..I'm here to buy...of course in GOOD working condition...lol

thx guys,
Freddy K

no problem.... NOW i'm trying to remove mine in the tribute since 4 hours and looks like it's stuck forever :( , anyone have any tips of how getting this damned radio out?

I have tried how the worksop manual says (DIN TOOLS) and looks like they are not working; i tried from the back, but the A/C ducts won't allow me, tried removing the dash and nothing

any suggestions?
