Default can i just pull out the cd player?

Alright guys i got a simple question about a 2000 Gt with the Mach 460 system. in my car i have the tadio and CD player separate the radio is on top and the CD player is on the bottom. I had a couple problems with the factory gauges and i have decided to put some aftermarked gauges in the center console where the CD player used to be. I pulled out the CD player and when i unpluged the connections the radio died. My question is there anyway to keep the stock headunit and run it without the cd player or am i goingto have to get a new headunit?

hmm, the radio should not have died. The radio has it's own power source......there is only one cable that connect the radio to the cd player, it is an 8 pin connector....
