Hi there

Is it the 6 disc head unit? Think it's called 6006.

If it is, you'll need to open it up.

You'll get the wee screwdriver for it from Maplin.

They hate printed copy cds. Plus it can drain your battery as it stays on although it looks off. The 1 hour timer doesn't work when it's jammed.

Rich. Put a search in Google. There are several videos on U Tube showing various methods. ;)

Looking at the videos it looks as if the screws could be Torx style. If so you can get a set very cheaply. Have a look (http://www.screwfix.com/p/forge-steel-metric-folding-torx-key-set-8-pieces/2962c) There are plenty of other cheap sets about including sets for dealing with so called 'security' screws. Take the unit to the shop with you. They'll soon tell you what fitting the screws are. ;)
