They look just fine, as he said.

And there are at least two good installation tutorials in this part of the forum. Just click on "Audio, Video and Electronics" above. Take special note of the "Amp is four channel" and "biggest bang for the buck" threads.


ONE SPECIAL NOTE: It is generally better to NOT use the RCA (2v/4v) outputs from the new head, our amps are lowZ input and are designed to be driven by SPEAKER OUTPUTs from the AM/FM head. You can kinda get away with using the 4v RCA feeds, but twice now I've had to fix installs that 'professionals' did where they used the RCA jacks, had a lot of noise in the audio, and told the customer that the 'car was the problem, we cant' fix that, now pay us'.

I had it fixed in 45 minutes by using the speaker leads.

If you have the diagram from the service manual (or one of those threads) along with the install instructions of the new head, it is not bad at all.
