Factual Questions

I’ve got a '99 Olds Alero GLS. It’s got the stock CD/Cassette/Stereo in it. I’ve got one of those iPod cassette adapters stuck in the tape deck, there’s no manual eject that I can find. Any ideas on how I can get that sucker out?

I’m certainly no car savant - BUT I have had this problem before. I “helped” the tape along gently (with a pen - though you could probably use a screwdriver more effectively) while I pressed eject. Worked for me, but I have NO working knowledge of the innards of a cassette player.

I’ve helped a tape out using a hemostat.
