Default Need some help with an Issue (is this replacement CD changer the same?)

My cd changer in my car is done. The mechanism which takes the cd's from the mag is screwed up. So it doesnt take the cd's in. I have found a cd changer to replace mine.

Now my question is I found 2 cd changers they both have the same numbers on the label but one has a second button on the front that has a "C" on it. I have a 2000 GS400 with Pioneer system.


The pic of what my changer looks like is like the following





But the other one is like this



whats the difference????

the label should have a part # on it..make sure they match and you should be good... if not look in the classifieds and pick up a used one...

when i get a chance i'll get you the exact part# if you can't find it.

They are the same unit. Someone just took the inspection sticker off the one. There is no second button.
