1964-1974 [Subscribe to Daily Digest] |
So instead of posting three different posts I'm going to combine these into one sorta long post. And also, I am new to all this so please bare with me:
1) Radio: I had posted a while ago (in response to Tyler A) about needing an old Saab radio. If anyone happens to have/know of one, I would be interested in either an AM only or AM/FM.
2) Sunroofs: I just posted a question and then posted another that I wasn't sure if anyone saw:
[Thanks for the input...I never thought about the fold back canvas type.
I was looking at something a little simpler. Something like this:

Any thoughts on if this could be a do-it-yourself project or should it be left to somebody who has experience doing it. Also, does installing it in the fiberglass roof make a difference? Is the fiberglass strong enough to hold a sunroof? ]
3) Clock: I just got a dash clock from a 1963 Saab 96 that I want to install in my Sonett. The clock has 3 tabs (1 for permanent live, 1 for ground, and 1 for the backlight). I took a quick look under the dash and thought it might work to hook the permanent live into the wiring for the interior light (the one right under the glove box). It looks like the light has 3 wires coming from it (black, red, and brown--any idea which is which?). The ground I could just run to a ground point somewhere. And the backlight I could wire into the dash lights. Does this all sound reasonable? Has anyone tried something like this?
As always, thanks for any and all input!
Jeff (73 Sonett)
