Hi all, I noticed a few forums posted over a decade ago, but unfortunately didn't seem to relate. I've got an issue where the cd auto changer had a fault. I pressed the eject button which spat the magazine out. I checked over the cds and everything seemed fine. After reseating the mag, the stereo no longer recognises the magazine, and says "no magazine". Since then I've tried to eject the mag, but had no luck. Has anyone had any issues with this? I removed the autochanger in the idea of fitting an aux lead to the unit, but with it being stuck I'm not sure it'll be as straightforward... Any info would be great! Thanks! 😊

Can relate with the OCD thing. My issue is that mine has less than 60 on the clock, and the rest of the car is mint. And the gearstick winds me up every time in the car... Doing a scan on the original might be a good idea, although not sure where you'd be able to find it.

I considered a 5 speed replacement, but I'm going to hang on and see what I can find. I've seen a few mk1 gearsticks go for sale in breakers yards, but they all seem to have the same issue. Knowing I'm not skilled enough to paint the topper means I've got the added problem of trying to find somebody with a steady hand..

Hi Thesoso, my search tuned up nothing. A few scrap yards had some poor examples and I heard of a few parts kicking around on Latvia and Czechia. However, I couldn't confirms these, as the sites did not seem legit, and I didn't want to gamble the 70 euro on a part that may not exist. I'm still looking locally, but it seems to me like it may be better to try and find somebody who is skilled enough to refurb the original. If you're search brings up another topper, it'd be great if you let me know! They seem to be one in a million these days.

Hi, recently came into ownership of 943- residing in Huddersfield.

Ah right, I'll give them a ring in the morning see what they say! Thanks for you help!

Ah brilliant! Thank you! I've been struggling to find one, I've see some. On Ebay go for a rediciulous price. Hopefully with a bit of shopping around I can get it for a reasonable price.

Hi all, new to the site and ownership of a SE VRS. I'm trying to get my hands on the gearstick topper, (which has the vrs logo and the place of the gears) as mine is worn. I'd anyone would be able to advise where I could find one it would be much appreciated. Thanks,
