Yeah, that's the piece they broke off the radio. They paid me to buy a new
one, but when they installed it, it still didn't work. I'm not so happy
with them right now, and that just adds to my frustrations. Sony say's
they'll be able to fix it, but then I have to go without my HU for God knows
how long. We'll see in time.

The analog/digital switch on the C90 is all menu based. No manual changes
are necessary. Just a power off and back on after the change is made.
