Easy enough to do if a little fiddly.

No setup required as the PIN diode is ready calibrated.

Are the lasers the same for the top and bottom CD slots on the NCDC2013 ?

Nope, bottom one no longer available but can be sourced secondhand.

IMO, its interesting that the bottom cd changer laser rarely plays up.

Ime at least, its always the top nav slot. I suspect the nav is constantly reading the nav disc, if inserted, and it just wears out.

Maybe removing the nav disc if not in use might help?

Thats because you don't play many CDRs in your CDC, as you use your uphill gardener gaypod thing.

stop using CDR's then, silly!

Gaypod player has a draw back, its only compatable with an outdated iPod, 3rd gen iirc. Therefor the battery will be fe@ked. The lap top wont charge it, so can't update the play lists, so it doesn't get the use as I'm bored with the contents.

Top slot has Paloma Faith. :y
