Hi, i have a very nice Capehart Solid State AM/FM Console Stereo with phono. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas where i could get info on how to change the needle on the phono? I currently have the part on order, but i have never changed one of these before. Any help would be great, and thanks in advance!

Model #?
Usually has a Garrard changer with EV cartridge, but anything could be installed, depending on the specific model.
Photos?
Those changers will require service now if you want them to perform properly.

So i got a new needle today, figured out how the old one came out, and the new one is very floppy when locked in place... i suspect the vendor sold me the wrong needle. I will upload some pics of the thing when i get a chance and anyone with help or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
