    Dead/soft switch in your radio? Stripped the safety screws? Buttons worn? Free Parts!

    I bought a non-working C33 head unit just so I could cannibalize it for a handful of little parts to refresh the C43 in my car--specifically I had a button that still worked but didn't have that nice *detent* when you pushed it. Also, the plastic housing around the plug in the rear was cracked, and one of the buttons had a scuff.

    But now I have the rest of the radio that I don't need. So if anyone wants to fix a soft button (it's actually quite easy), or replace a stripped-out safety screw, or if a button face is scratched or worn...I'm happy to give you whatever part you need. I don't want money, but if you want to PayPal me a buck or two for some stamps and envelopes, I won't turn it down

    Brass security screws are in perfect shape, w/ e-clips attached.
    Potentiometer works and has nice resistance.
    Knob is in good shape and clean.
    Button pads are easy to remove/replace with nothing more than a safety pin.
    Buttons themselves just fall out when you remove the faceplate backing (also easy).


    Seriously, I'm not trying to sell these bits and pieces--just looking to recycle as much as possible before the rest goes to landfill.

    Screw cover 'doors' on either side are both spoken for, along with the volume knob. I have shipped them off.

    Faceplate buttons and security screws are still available. I can drop them in an envelope with a couple stamps, just let me know.
