Re: Speaker fitment / Wiring diagrams. please contribute!
I have a Mk2 rev 1 turbo, took the advice of 5.25", removed door-cards and found a 4" speaker there within a larger circular metal surround, attached by 3 self-tappers. The original circular holes were about 5 inches across, so I re-drilled and managed to secure the 5.25's, but it looks as...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Weird buzzing from back of car with ignition off - aerial no longer working
Old thread, but MR2 Ben has replacement aerials very reasonably priced, with reasonably clear fitting instructions. Antenna/gear replacement for original aerials is strictly for people with time on their hands!

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Replace Aerial Stalk = Stereo Dead
You have probably lost the earth somewhere in the aerial-fixing process. Run new earth, ad things will probably light up (in a good way)!

It could be the loom is damaged in that area, and you have a break n continuity affecting two of the...
