Need someone with an '88 EVTM

[86VickyLX]

I need a scan of the Premium sound radio pages for an '88 Grand Marquis sedan. My friend has just bought an after market radio, but I can't figure out the speakers. I have the power ground and switched power all sorted out. He doesn't want to run new speaker wires, so how can I get it to work with the original wiring and amp?

get your friend to spend $15-$20 on a roll of wire from walmart to run new lines for the speakers. the wire adapter/harness for after market stereos doent work with the common ground setup. i buy the harness/adapter to power the stereo and buy a roll of speaker wire and run new lines to the speakers. if your friend wants affordable speakers, might i suggest the speakers you saw in Baby during SF07. they are the Dual illumninites that can be purchased at walmart. the speakers still sound as good as the day i bought them and are impressive for the price. the lights on them dont have to be hooked up, but the speakers are about $35 a pair for the 6 1/2 and the 6x9s. i dont like hooking up the dash speakers since the dash on Panthers are fragile.

Looks like that's what I'll have to have him do.

There is an amp bypass kit, and a stereo install kit that allows you to just plug into the stock wiring. Go to a place that sells that stuff, and they should know what you're after. Don't cut any of the stock wires.

Amp comes on whenever the key is in accessory or run. It doesn't matter if there is a radio or not.
