Thanks again guys, you're too kind Smile  I was going to send him a PM to see what he thought, but seems like blueraven already has. 

And just to be more TurboGrafxy, I refer to the mountaintops in the background of Stage 1 of China Warrior.

Awesome.

Does the new spindle hold the disc firmly like a Ps1 spindle?

The new one?  Yeah, the cd 'clicks' into place.  It doesn't sit like on the original, thats why you can pull off the part on the cd door.  That and it probably wont close right if you left it on.

Can this guide partially be used to replace the laser on a Super CD-ROM2 unit? I need to replace mine.

I imagine the process would be similar.  I never had the need to rip mine open.  I am not sure what replacement laser you would need.

I'm pretty sure the American unit takes a KSS220A as well, can anyone confirm this?

Yeah, I have done this with my black CDROM2 and it is practically the same drive.

Just a thought...
Does anyone know enough about these laser assemblies to deduce whether it's practical (or even possible) to replace just the laser diode, while using the original housing? I have a hard time finding the KSS-220A, but I would think the actual dioide would be more common.

Speaking of which, my TG-CD is working fine, but I am interested in upgrading the spindle to the "click" variety, as described in BlackandBlue's aweXome guide...but I can't find the "complete" assembly anywhere! Does anyone have an alternate part number?

I think the shaft size is 5/64", which I believe is standard for CS spindle motors.  I suppose you can pull it out of any old cd player you have laying around.

When I get home I can see if the spare motors I have have part numbers on them to confirm.  I dont know the technical name for the clicky cs seat, so its hard to try to find it.
