ALRIGHT SO THIS IS THE 2ND CD PLAYER IVE GONE THROUGH IN THE PAST YEAR DO TO SOME SORT OF A WATER LEAK, COMING FROM THE COWL AND DRIPPING ON THE CD PLAYER. ANYWAY WANT TO GET SOME IDEAS OF U WERE U GUYS R MOUNTING THEM AT. IVE TRIED TO FIND THE LEAK, NO LUCK SO ILL RELOCATE IT. TRYING TO GET MY SHIT DOWN FOR THE HAMMERS AND THIS IS ONE OF THE LITTLE THINGS LEFT. GOTA HAVE THE TUNES!! :flipoff2:

#1, best buy extended warranties rule all. I got 3-4 radios off one.
#2 water is probably coming through the vents so clean out the drain tube in the cowel vent opening.
#3, maybe put something over the top of your radio. Somone suggested cutting up a plastic anitfreeze bottle or something.

I used electrical tape and a ziplock baggy on mine and it has been working for a good while now

it needs airflow to stay cool, so stay away from the baggie/tape combo. try finding a piece of tupperware that it fits into and modify it so you can get to the controls and it fits in your dash, then use some tape or whatever method you want to secure it inside of the tupperware.

and dude...CAPS SUCK

overhead console.

FIX YOUR WINDSHIELD WEATHER STRIP LEAK AND YOUR RADIOS WILL LAST LONGER. ALSO STOP TYPING IN CAPS YOU DONT NEED TO SHOUT

Have a nice day

Well They Sell These Weatherproof Cases That Your Cd Player Slides Into And There Suppostly Water Resisdent, Was Thinking That Route But There Litke $60. I Might Try The Plastic Thing.
Anyone Else?

check out http://www.westmarine.com or another boat shop

and :cow:

best buy also sales a marine cd players. there like 150-300$ .

If I was doing it I would make a piece of aluminum or plastic to would mount above the radio and protect it from drips on all sides.

Outside of that the steel center consoles are pretty water tight, or you could put it in an ammo box. The marine covers most people look at are only faceplate covers, but they work real well.

I have been working on a metal box to put a radio in that would mount in most stock locations, but got busy with buying a condo and rebuilding the tonka.

If you need a marine cover let me know, I'll see what kind of deal I can make you :D .

Oh Yeah and avoid the plastic baggy thing it can just as easily destroy your radio.

I quoted 15 cause not everyone in this section can figure out how to use a pair of tin-snips...might actually only take 5 :p

Clarion makes really good marine equipment.

mount it in your center console. there are tuffy consoles that have a spot for c.d. players or cb radios

We are both in the same boat. Ive ruined two this last year also in the toyota. Saw a sandrail with a box made out of fiberglass and a marine face plate. the wiring was all ran down throught braided lines for a clean look.
