Subject:new radio installation
From:marty

Hi, I just bought a new radio for my 85 GL. The present aftermarket radio is
not mounted at all (it just kind of sits in the opening, no face plate) or
connected correctly (when I turn off the ignition the radio stays on until I
turn it off). I'm wondering if anyone with radio installation knowledge in
the detroit, michigan area would be kind enough to help me install it
(beer/soda, pizza/salad included), or if any of the all-knowing list beings
would send me some basic instructions. I'm planning on putting it underneath
the passenger seat once I get an opening cut. I know how to connect/run
wires and I'll also be replacing the door speakers. What I'm wondering is
where should the radio power be properly connected to under the dash?
