1 - Don't keep papers on the dash. They have a tendency to slide
forward and cover up the display. What we actually look at is a mirror.
The real display is on the dash.

2 - Don't load CD changer with all CD-RW's. Apparently they are thicker
than regular CD's and CD +/- and the CD arm can't load them properly
causing a jam.

We have our CD changer fully loaded with CD-RWs, so far no problem. I suspect that what might be jamming some units (if this is indeed happening) is CD-RWs with self-adhesive paper labels. We just label ours with a pen directly on the CD - no sticky labels.

Wow, I feel like a Xerox machine, as I have the exact same sentiments on the matter.

Though I did consider at one point in doing a mirror alteration and projecting speed onto the windshield.
