Ah, for that I will have to consult the sacred Bentley. Not sure what
terminal it's on without looking but I seem to recall it being a white wire.

I think it was Ti Or Taka that had a radio guide on their web page, or I'm
sure with all the fiddlin' he's been doing to his Auto-Fi Brett could tell
you what wire.

If you don't find out by tomorrow I will send you my answer (wiring diagrams
are at home).

HTH,
Chris Perry

Which terminal is the amplifier turn on? I
couldn't figure it out from the Bose unit's
sticker.

You need to use the rear antenna _and_ make sure
you have power to the rear
antenna amplifier.

OK, finished installing my Alpine head unit this
past weekend and my speakers. I'm really glad I
wired it before actually getting all of the
parts. The install went smoothly, Bose out,
Alpine in. There are laminated paper adapters
glues to the rear speakers. I just ripped them
off, and put them on the new Premiers. No
alternator whine, or anything. I got my antenna
adapter for the VW-din jack. Anyway, I get no AM
reception. I tried using the other antenna, but
still nothing. I get engine noise through the
tuner in am. FM is fine, however. I'm using the
rear antenna because it give better FM than the
front. I'm going to get a y adapter to plug both
in together.

ANyway, what gives? No AM?
BTW-for a couple of days, I was using a length
of wire stretched across my dash as an antenna
while waiting for my adapter to come in. I got a
couple of am stations and the engine noise was
not as pronounced. Any fixes would be
appreciated.

'90 200q, no more Bose :)
