Okay.

Now I'm a little confused. I'm guessing it is running a differential antenna or similar.

I've pulled the antenna lead from the back of the stereo & it's got two pins rather than the usual one in a traditional (non diferential) stereo.

Can anyone confirm that the second cable is a differential antenna (GU Series III ST stereo with single disk & tape)?

Thanks,

Dave

Disregard. Answered my own question.

Now to source an adapter...

In the mean time I've followed the cable back and found a join to a standard connector in the left side kick panel. I'll use an extension from there for the moment.

Hi Dave,

There are 2 antennas from factory - the normal one on the front and then a second on the back left cargo window (you can see the outline on the glass). Hence the 2 pin plug.

I got a 2 pin to normal single am/fm plug from WOW site and sound a few years ago. They keep them in stock so you can buy off the shelf.

Regards
David
