Something to keep in mind.  My understanding is that earlier
Vanagons/Westies used a single wire/common ground for the ground on the
rear speakers.  Later models ran separate grounds.  And newer receivers can
handle the separate grounds where earlier radios used the common ground
setup.  So on your '83 you have the chance to upgrade the speaker wiring.
