Default Stock '91 240 cassette deck jerry-rig

So I got tired of the radio not working (120 mile daily commute will do that); it was working intermittently, and if I tapped on the digital display the sound would cut in and out.

Took it out of the dash and found that if I squeezed it between my hands, with one on top and one on the bottom of the stereo, it stopped cutting out...so I made a big c-shaped spring with a marshmallow roaster that we never seem to remember to bring camping - now there's constant pressure on the stereo casing and it's working just fine.

Anyone else run into this before? I should have taken pictures, sorry.

[edit - sorry, wrong model forum.]
