Ill hopefully get a CD player, an amplifier and 3 speakers installed before next weekend, when Ill drive 259 miles to a american car meeting. I have two questions:
My 63.5 Galaxie has the original radio. When installing a modern cd-player from 2002, can I connect the cables from this cd player to the original radio cables? The necessary cables is permanent 12V and 12V connected to the ignition switch. Ground is easy. I have the wiring diagram for 63 Galaxie, but it may be a challenge to find and access the actual cables. Some tips about cable colours and location?
Installing the amplifier may be easy, done it with other cars before. The 12V power cable have to go through the firewall. Where is the most ideal place on the firewall to get it through? I assume I have to drill a hole
