I just got a 1984 240DL and the original radio had been removed with no regard for the future owner (they CUT the wires instead of unplugging them, etc.). I found the original set in the trunk and I wanted to know what the colors of the wires mean. Does anybody have a wiring diagram or legend for the OEM radio? I figured it would be fairly straightforward, but there are TWO red wires from the radio, a really long blue wire, and unmarked yellow/black and black speaker wires. The only wire with a label is the yellow "dimmer" wire but I don't know where to plug that in either. Some of you may want to know why I'm even bothering with the old radio, but it's so... *cool* I just can't let it live in the trunk.

Thanks!

Ben
