Re: IML: 81-83 1.5 DIN Stereo?

[Matthew Gill <mgill3@xxxxxxx>]

I actually purchased the same radio brand new, in a sealed box for about 180 shipped rather than paying 250 for the one from crutchfield. I also ordered a universial wireing harness adapter so hopefully I don't have a major issue with that. I read about wiring the antenna to the factory rear amp button, so i might do that.. but first I'd have to get my power antenna working. Any tips on that, or where to get a new antenna motor?

I just need to order new speakers. Is crutchfield corrrect by saying that the rear's are 5x7 and the dash speakers are 3 1/2's ?

Thanks!
