  1. Adding a second AUX to the factory radio in the 88 (bought a new one) is also a candidate - does this go into an unused plug ? or do you tap off an existing plug ? I can hide a stereo minature phone jack but thought is also required a control lead to go high or low. Is this true ?

    i tryed this.you need a plug.i didn't have one so i reused the tape player inputs.

  2. i finished mine yesterday.i used the cord for hooking an ipod to a stereo and cut off the stereo end.using daniels links i soldered the ground wires to the black wire with a stripe and the other two wires to the wires per the forum.it works great with my xm radio.it works good with my ipod but won't get loud enough to rattle the windows[the xm has higher output power]i was going to hook it to the overriding input but i would have needed a plug to plug into the radio.

  3. on a 89 reatta,are the wires already in the plug for the upper aux input or do i need a plug from a later radio?if so where do they go since theres no aux audio source?in other words are there wires to tap or do i need to add wires?

  4. after nagging my dad for years about him not driving the reatta he bought new,he gave it to me.it has the usual problems,broke sunroof and its rusting out,remote mirrors don't work[no power to the fuse],radio doesn't get loud,i have to pull the fuse to get the parking lights to go out,cassette players broke,check engine light is on[bad knock sensor it seems,]and the port for the scan tool is dead.on the upside,it has a new computer and new tires on the ugly[imo]factory wheels.new carpet is needed badly to get the moldy smell out.ive been lurking here since the summer and saw the posts about mazda sunroofs.i got to autozone too late to buy a new light switch.is there a relay for the parking lights?[maybe stuck?]im going to tap the cassette wires to add a satelite radio.i did the warm and down trick to get the codes[esc?]btw,im near charlotte nc
