Step 3Remove the cassette player mechanism
This picture shows the cassette mechanism laid over upside-down. Note that there is a "leaf switch" which actually turns the power on to the motor when you press any of the buttons on the player (play/rewind/fastforward, etc). We'll "repurpose" a switch on the old radio portion for use as a power switch for the MP3 player.
The grey and white wires in the lower-center of the picture are the ones that were attached to the tape player head. You can't see it here, but the board where they attached was labeled "L. Ch." and "R. Ch." for Left Channel and Right Channel.
With all the screws out and wires desoldered or cut, you can remove the cassette mechanism from the player.
