wow.... don't know where to start on this one, understand that I'm not that hot with electrical crap, and car stereos are totally foreign to me....
I bought a car, it had a nice stereo system in it at one time.... it's got this little kick butt Kenwood tv/dvd/cd/whatever else in the dash.... I opened the trunk there's a bunch of wires for the add-on system laying there, now there's a couple of monster suckers (1/2" dia) that are hot and ground I guess, then there's a bunch of RCA connectors.... along with this, the stock stereo system still exists and appears to be wired up and intact.
now, a couple of questions...
I've got no sound, this leaves me in the car singing to myself and that's just downright horrible! can someone help me figure out how to make noise? I'm assuming all that extra stuff it just wires right now and the stock speakers should work.. (this could be that I'm not smart enough to figure out this high tech radio also0
I'm going to isolate these wires, but would like to know how to use them later (i.e. amps, speakers, etc) there is a kenwood amp on the back deck along with the stock power amp...
does anyone need a project? lol... I can pay money.... I'm being about half serious on that one...
or???? is there someplace I can check that will teach me this stuff in a nutshell?
