Blimey, going back in time!!

There were two radios that looked the same but one had the round din output for the amp. Think it had four little buttons instead of three. can't remember any model numbers though.

The plugs wil be as rare as rocking horse dung but can be wired up using female spade connectors.

From memory the outside large terminal is the earth and the large one next to it is the main feed from the ign switch. The next two are the permenent live and the electric aerial. Not sure which one is which. I would power it up and test to see which one goes live when you switch on as this will be th he aerial output. The screen will be blank until you get the permenent live on.

Have fun.

Hi Ollie. Did you end up using that set off wiring for the radio in your picture? (Appreciate it's nearly a year ago!). It's just that I'm looking for one of those link cables with the round connectors at each end for my cassette player, which I'm hoping to put into my XR3i (not a cabby, sorry). I have the cassette player and equaliser, both with the round multi pin sockets.

Cheers,

Lee
