11. Will radio CD player or Tape player work after installing this module?
YES!
The CD player or Tape player built-into AM/FM radio or remote 12-disc
changer operation are not affected by this module.
12. Callers not able to hear my voice with top down (convertible).
Can you offer some guidance?
In convertibles, microphone mounted to visor is exposed to wind noise.
Notable, callers will have no issue while vehicle is standing still. Our
microphone includes noise cancellation features, which is different than
wind noise and our recommendation is to install microphone in an area less
susceptible to wind noise (e.g., pillar, mirror etc.).
13. How do I remove radio from dashboard to install module?
The ADIY-C5CD connects to the radio. Click link for video instructions:

YES. There is no way to pause or stop disc from spinning. Once "CD/AUX"
or "TAPE/AUX" button is pressed, the disc will continuously spin.
