Title: Radio instal help
Post by: krissymacb007 on June 27, 2010, 11:49:40 AM
 :lost:I just bought a 75 runabout and I am in love.  First car I had when i was a teen.  put around 1200 in engine repairs, and yes, I rebuilt the carb over the last to days and all that is needed is body and paint and a radio.  WHICH is why I'm here today.  I have no idea how to put the radio I have in it.  Old tape style radio (in tune with 1975)  just not sure about wiring...Any help?

There is a speaker in the dash with a plug to the radio? and there`s a plug for power on the instrument cluster side just below the heater bezel under the dash best seen with the radio bezel removedit is a 2 wire plug one wire has a blue stripe... if these plugs dont match your radio tap into them by finding a male plug off someone on the site with a old radio and get them to cut if off ....Otp #2.or wire it to the fuse box and run new speaker wires ...also if it has a antenna the plug for that will be there to it runs along the bottom of the dash on plastic clips..............just under the bottom lip.....
