'91 200TQ: installing aftermarket stereo

[Pat Korach]

Bart

I have a Pioneer deck in my 89 200TQ and it works great.  The 200 has a
common
ground for the  speakers and the Pioneer deck uses a seperate ground for
each
speaker.  I seperated them on my car so this may be one of your problems in
getting sound out of yours.

Hope this helps
