While I have been up here today for the FX Audio Free dB Drag,Someone has graciously given me a free Eclipse deck...4v preouts..pretty nice...except one catch...ITS LOCKED!

This person told me that it needs to be sent away to someplace in states to be unlocked for a cost of about $80 plus shipping...not too shabby,but a little more than I can afford right now...

Does anyone happen to know of a way to do this?

PLEASE DO NOT REPLY HERE AS I DO NOT HAVE INTERNET!PLEASE FORWARD ANY REPLIES TO LOUD BROWN KICKER COLT AND/OR JUGGERNAUT SPORTAGE..I'M SURE THEY WONT MIND..HEHE...If you include a phone number I can reach you at,I will do my utmost to call and give more info...(I do have my Fido phone)

Thanks for any possible insight that you all might have...

If it was regestered with Eclipse the original owner will have to do it.
If not, you may be able to do it with some help from an Eclipse retailer. The older ones had to be sent in but if it's only a couple years old you can probably do it with some help.
Get to your local authorized Eclipse retailer with it & they can help you.

And if that does not work, any authorized dealer should be able to unlock it as well. A ESN change of owner form will need to be filled out first and then the dealer should be able to get a new rotating unlock code for it, provided the cd player is newer than a 98 model.
