Question
Hi Ernesto and thanks for the help, I have a Holden Vectra 2000 GL and put a copied CD that I think was one of those thicker ones into the CD player and it wont come out or play.
Is their any way of getting it out please, Thankyou Jeneane.

Answer
hi: i am sorry i seen a lot of changer but not familiar with the Vectra 2000
here is the problem becasue this units are so small everything is very tight inside there is metal plates less that a 1mm thick this plates go on top of the disc very very close and they are very sharp so what they do is peel the sticker or go in the midle of the paper sticker and the disc  
you have to open the unit and try to remove only the paper lable not the disc once you have the paper out close the unit and press the eject button and it will work again
also be carefull no to force it if the plates bend the cd player will get damage

i am sorry i don't have any information about your cd player
good luck
