Does this holder still allow the CD player to work while mounted in the CD slot?

Instructions say to eject CD to prevent damage. I haven't tried it so my guess would be no. This doesn't bother me because I always plug in my phone and stream music. This is the first use I've had for my CD player in years.

No it does not. The holder completely fills the slot for the CD. Radio works, but it would need to be removed if you are wanting to play a CD.

Yes. You need to take it out in order to change the CD, but the player will still work as this is not inserted far into the front of the slot.

It probably depends on the car. It does in a VW, though we mainly use it for a MINI. Might not be relevant, but it did leave some indentations on the guard for the CD player in the VW (the two small flaps of fabric blocking the entry for the unit).

Yes it should work just fine. I use it in a multi-disk player myself. I would just make sure to eject/insert any CDs prior to installing the mount. If you eject while the mount is installed you could damage your player.

I think it's dependent on the car you have. I have an '08 Civic, and it doesn't play CDs while using this mount. CD in the slot is fine, but it won't play.

The short answer in the Silverado into which I installed it is ... not enough if placed in the CD opening. I ended up putting it into a seam between the top of the dash board and the instrument panel. There it doesn't block access to any of the environmental, radio/CD or other controls on the instrument panel. It still works great.

If the CD eject mechanism works, yes. Be prepared though, it sounds like you may have bigger problems with the CD player.

yes you just have to remove it to change or take out the cd. i use it in my minivans dvd slot

NO .. it will not hurt the CD player. The only problem I found was that after a while of driving it starts to work loose and you have to tighten up a little.

I can't see it being a problem. Mine has a lever you close to secure the unit in the CD drive that's located in the center of the unit.

Most optical drives have tiny "hook" like protrusions around the edges that will hold the CD in place in a vertical configuration. I've only used my optical drive for two DVDs so far with this case but I haven't had any issues with the CD's at all and they don't fall out while the disk tray is moving since they're held in place by those protrusions. I would examine your optical drive and see if they have it. There are usually 4 one in each corner.

In mine, yes, it works in either direction. But that might not be true of all CD players.

No, you cannot play CD's while this is installed. It's easy enough to pull it out when you want to play a CD though.

Mine is the same model as below. I would not recommend this model. The function and CD player buttons are ONLY on the remote. If you loose the remote, the system would be worthless. Also, I've had the CD player quit working on me twice already, within the first year. So far, I can unplug it and plug it back in and it will start working again, but it doesn't bode well. Good luck

Yes, absolutely. It's a nice feature because it's hidden behind the faceplate. The button in the top right corner makes the faceplate swing open and reveal the single CD player.

No. The Duragadget sturdy adjustable holder for portable DVD players works great with this unit.

No, the CD player continued to work after I installed. Everything worked fine.

Yes, and it will work as in holding your CD's in place but you will be sacrificing the secure stacking which the clear rubber legs on bottom and indented receivers on top provide.
