reinstalling CD player shock absorbers

Jul 27, 2008 1 Replies

I had to disassemble the 6-CD player from my Mercedes to release a stuck CD. I've run into a little trouble though putting it all back together.



primary problem is the 4 little mushy rubbery cone-shaped shock absorbers that suspend the CD Player mechanism to the outer case. I had to pull off them off the metal pins on the CD Player itself in order to get access. They pulled off easily enough but I am not managing to get them back on now.



Is there a special toll one would use? Or is there a trick anyone can suggest? I can't push the metal posts in deep enough to catch on the rubber.

Sometimes a drop of liquid soap in the hole can do wonders...
