Hi Folks,
We’ve recently become
The owners of a ‘98 UK Autobiography which Is in really decent nick but has been bug***d about with its stereo system with a total piece of crap aftermarket radio and the removal of the stock HK subwoofer in the boot (not to mention the horrific speaker grill hacked into the trim panel -now replaced).
I’d like to return to pretty much standard config and have sourced the original Clarion head unit and CD Autochanger and a new/old stock HK subwoofer.
My (likely silly) questions are:
When I remove the offensive pioneer gaudyness, does the clarion slip into the same metal mounting sleeve ?
(I don’t know yet what horrors I’ll find re wiring butchery but I hope they’ve used an adaptor harness).
Seondly, the Sub slips and bolts into place beautifully. The white 6-pin connector is there and clips in -the control for the CD is there too,
what I wondered though, is, is that the only connector the sub unit requires ? There’s an ominous hole next to the connector block which looks like it would take a power supply -but I don’t understand what the logic would be in doing that ! -I’d have thought all the necessary would be in the multi-connector.
Thanks in advance for help.
Bob
