The factory stereo can be removed very easily with a specialized tool called a DIM. I received this tool when I purchased an upgrade radio from Crutchfield. The tool is a pair of metal U shaped "horseshoes". Simply remove two panels from each side of the radio and insert the DIMS fully to unlock the radio chasis from the mount. Then simply pull the stereo out. Takes less than 5 minutes tops.
To remove the CD player in a 2000 Mazda Protege, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Then, use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry off the trim panel surrounding the stereo. After removing the trim, unscrew the mounting screws holding the CD player in place, disconnect the wiring harness and antenna cable, and then slide the CD player out of the dash. Finally, reverse the process to install a new unit if desired.
Center of the dash board you moron.
try d/c the battery and reconnecting it...worked for me
When a Mazda Protege's CD player displays "TR" upon inserting a disc and then ejects it, it typically indicates a "tray" error, meaning the unit is unable to read the disc properly, possibly due to a dirty lens, a damaged disc, or a malfunctioning mechanism. To fix this, first, try cleaning the CD and the player’s lens with a CD cleaning kit. If the problem persists, check for any visible damage to the disc or consider replacing the CD player if it's malfunctioning.

once a CD is stuck in the player, the player is no good. to take the player out,you have two covers on each side of the player covering a pair of holes. you need to purchase these removal pins from an auto part store like oreilly's or a Mazda dealership can remove for you sometimes for free. to remove the CD, you will have to remove the top half of the screws of the player and remove the CD hold down
