The 1990 240 wagon I recently bought had an aftermarket radio in it that was stolen(from the previous owner). My first instict was to replace it with a stock 240 radio, yet the car audio installer keeps insisting that it is more trouble than its worth as the amplifier in the car has been bypassed. I have an '86 volvo tape deck that I would most prefer to put it in but have no idea how to connect it. Has anyone had this problem? Should I just give up and throw a cd deck in it?
Thanks in advance for any help.

The stock 240 radios that I know about all use an amplifier to power the rear speakers. The amp comes on with the power antenna power lead and has a DIN jack direct on the back of the radio for its audio input. The fader control on the radio works in this set-up.
My CR-4123 has 5 pre-sets for AM and 5 for FM, too few for me. I have plans to install a stereo-CD unit.
How hard your job could be can depend on what wiring/connectors are still available in the car. I don't know if the 9-pin connector, with which aI am familiar, is used after the model years after 1988.
You might get more answers if you ask on the RWD forum.
Good Luck,
Bob
