I know that my sisters boyfriend got a replacement face for his cd player about 4 years ago, but I dont know how they work now. It sucks *** that your busted but at least you can still listen to your tunes through your new kick *** system.
You might want to try calling kenwood.

ya, you should be able to purchase one from kenwood, or you could watch ebay for some, everyonve in awhile people have their cd players stolen, but they removed the face before it got stolen, so they sell it on ebay.

(hope thats not too confusing)

if you have a warranty, send it to kenwood like you know what ur doing. if ur lucky, they may just replace it for a small fee. if not it may cost u between $50 and $100, maybe more.

good luck either way.

www.pacparts.com sells the face along with just about any other part you may need for your head unit. I recently bought the trim ring for my Z919 from them and had no problems. Check it out, simply browse the catalog as a guest and search for your specific model, it will come up with a list of all the parts you can get for it, the face should be on there.

Well, since you said you can see the liquid stuff all over the place in there I would think you'll need the whole face. If you are really good at soldering and working with electronics you could get the LCD screen and put it in yourself and then replace the plastic lens as well. It all depends on what you are comfortable doing. Good luck.
