Chrysler made radios with two wiring configurations in the 80's... My 82 is wired for two radio plugs: a rectangular six pin and a separate two pin connector. The car is also equipped with the "Audio Power Amplifer" that the six pin connector mates with. The radio I want to put in the Imperial is an electronically tuned premium radio form an 87 Lebaron. This radio has the more familiar connectors: a straight six pin and a straight seven pin. Most of the extra wires are separate grounds for each speaker. My 86 Service Manual shows a wiring diagram connecting the 6/7 configuration radio to the old power amp. The only difference is the jumpering of two of the speaker connections outside the power amp while on the 82 those connections are shown going inside the power amp. This question is: Can I wire the 87 radio as shown in the manual mating it to the old power amp or should I bypass the power amp and run ground wires to each speaker? BTW, www.crutchfield.com is a good resource for iPod connection options...there are written reviews/tests of each option.
