2000 Outback Station Wagon -- Removal of CD Changer.

Featured Replies

Can anyone out there tell me how to remove a 6 cd changer unit from a 2000 Outback Legacy Wagon? Thanks.

1) remove the negative battery cable

 

2) Under the center arm rest, there are 2 screws, remove them and the shift panel will pull up. Do not remove it, but shift it aside.

 

3) Remove the ash tray and the 3 screws that hold the slide plate in ( 2 on top and one in the back)

 

4) Remove the cup holder 2 screws. Now the CD face plate should come out

 

5) The CD changer is held in with 6 screws (before you remove them, place some rags at the bottom to catch the screws that will fall.

 

6) Carefully pull the unit and mounting brackets fwd and unplug the connectors. That should do it. Not tough, but care is needed.

 

Note this was for my 98 Outback, but I believe yours is the same. Larry
