CR 700

posted by  someone claiming to be New2Volvo on  Sat Apr 30 16:41 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I found a CR-814 with "anti-theft" in a junkyard, and both the radio and cassette work. I will be transplanting it into a 86 740 that had an aftermarket radio/tape/cd in it when I bought it (and was ceremonially stolen the other day). Figured I'd replace it with a genuine VOLVO since nobody steals VOLVO radios, right? I also got the part of the harness that connects to the back of the radio, however it looks nothing like what was left of mine -- was there a harness adapter already there to allow the aftermarket (Jensen) unit to work in my VOLVO, or do I need to make another trip to the junkyard, or do I need to buy a complete harness to make it fit? Also I got the "trays" (the one that holds the radio, the compartment underneath it, and the ashtray as well (since they looked nicer than the ones in my car after the breakin)). Any thing to look out for to make for a nice fit? Thanks for any assistance, as me and electrical things don't often work well together.
