Default Anybody know how to manually eject a CD from HK/HU?

After removing my stock HK/HU I realized I had left a CD in the drive. No way to plug it back in. Got the lid and faceplate off, But can't seem to find a manual release lever or button. Not sure why but I think there should be one.

Connect it to a battery with alligator clips red=positive, black=negative, then press the eject button.

May give that a try, Will have to look at wiring diagram to know which pin to hotwire.
Would hate to fry the unit for a $5.00 CD
