Subject: Re: Stereo Wiring Mayhem


saabster, the green wire goes to the electric antenna, the grey wire should be 12v with key off to hold memorey, the red is key on 12v, the black is ground, the brown and white wire is for the back lighting from the rehostat, and the other plug are the speaker wires. This wiring is if your radio is out of the 87-88 900 range. E-mail me if you have further questions Or stop by San Francisco on your way to Texas buy a six pack and we will wire your radio....Jason Pearce http://www.swedishwrench.com > The Pioneer tape deck in my 85 900 didn't work when I bought the car > last month, so when I came across a Saab Clarion deck in a thrift store > I immediately snatched it for $10.
