I've got a Pioneer DEH-P7200 that hasn't been cleaned before. I've had it for about 3 years, and it's starting to skip a lot when I try playing cd's. I'm assuming it just needs to be cleaned, but I'm too cheap and lazy to take it out and pay $30 to have it professionally cleaned. Any suggestions as to how to clean it myself?

They sell kits for this in the automotive audio section of most stores. Just ask the salesperson for a car CD player cleaning kit

I asked at Best Buy if they had anything I could use to do it myself, and they said I just needed to bring it in and have them clean it. Any other stores you'd suggest?

Here's a link to what Crutchfield sells. It's what I described above.
You might even be able to go to your local Wal Mart or Sears and find the same thing in their automotive audio section.
