Re: 87 5kcsq stereo replacement

Hopefully you didn't cut off the stock connectors like the idiot
previous owner of my car did. I say this because a wiring harness
adapter is available from Crutchfield http://www.crutchfield.com/ and
maybe other auto sound suppliers as well. By looking at the Bentley
wiring diagram I would imagine that this adapter has a relay to power
the rear amp along with a signal level converter in order to prevent it
from being overpowered by speaker level signals. Keep in mind that I
haven't acually seen or used said device because of my butchered stock
wiring. I would assume that others will know more or that this is
covered in the currently unavailable archives.
