My trunk mounted disc changer will not keep the cartridge in any more. I suspect the rubber air bag is done for on one side since the unit is sitting kind of crooked in the housing. Has anyone used a good source for parts or repair of these Volvo disc changers? If I remember right these are alpine or Kenwood changers.
Otherwise a parts list might be helpful to try and track down the rubber shocks under the changer. I think the road bumps are jarring the unit enough to cause the cartridge to eject. It jams up against the door, and I have to snap the door off to push it back in.

Crutchfield has the Alpine unit that will fit perfectly. You may also want to consider the OEM glovebox-mounted player. I've heard some good things about those, if you can live without all of your glovebox space.
