Hey, guys.

Can anyone tell me all the stock oem radio options from all the years?

Pics would be great, too!

Thanks,

Most of everything audio for our cars.

Thanks. I already checked that site...doesn't have the info I am looking for--or maybe I didn't see it.

There are some pics of a bunch of them over on 3SX:
Stereo Harness Adapter (http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_viewItemBundle.asp?idProduct=26292)

I know it doesn't include them all since it doesn't have mine. Is that kinda what you're aiming for though?

[vr4_rider]

Thanks, buddy. I didn't even notice that page when I was looking at 3sx.

I bougth a car with NO radio and NO radio harness.

I would like to know what radio comes in my car stock. I am not into premium audio, so the stock system is fine. And as such, I would like to get one that originally came on my 1993 RT/TT.

Thanks,
TP

I don't know for sure, but I don't know if you could even go by the year. It may depend on if there's an amp, etc. You could just check out what connectors you do have and try to find one that matches up with it.

Maybe there is a list of the various types though. Sorry I can't be more helpful

Ahhh. I don't have All Models, All Years but for '93 Stealth I can help you..
I have a '93 price sheet that shows the RT and RT/TT came with
"Radio, AM/FM ETR stereo w/graphic equalizer & 6 speakers" (ETR = Electronically tuned receiver)
This is the dual DIN Mitsubishi radio, not the Infinity.
The 6 disc CD changer was available as an option with an invoice price of $466.12, suggested retail $542.00
(FWIW My '93ES came without the changer but with the CD cable installed)

For those that are interested, the Base and ES came with a single DIN AM/FM standard that could be upgraded to either an AM/FM with Cassette & 4 speakers or the same AM/FM with graphic equalizer.

I just found the part number for that radio to help you search, its MB943294...
You will also need an adapter harness to go from the body wiring to the radio.
Make sure when you buy it that the harness is with it, they can be hard to come by..

You've been more than enough help. Thanks!

Thanks, Steve.

The pic you posted---what year and model is that from?

Are you saying that part number belongs to the radio in your pic? And it came on the RT/TT?

Also, that harness you posted can be used on the radio you posted, right?

Thanks,
TP

BTW, I am going to use the radio MB942704 (the one with the graphic equalizer, not the manual push up and down one) from a 1993 VR4.

I grabbed that picture from 3sx ;)
It is identical to the one in my closet, which came out of my '93 :)

I got the part number off the one in my closet..

And it came on the RT/TT?
To the best of my knowledge.

Also, that harness you posted can be used on the radio you posted, right?
Yes.
The wiring in the car has two connectors going to the radio. If the radio you're using has one connector, like the one in the picture, you will need a similar adapter for yours.

[vr4_rider]

Thanks, buddy.

My radio has two connectors. If looking from the back of the radio, there is a 14 pin connector and another smaller one to the right. Your radio in your closet/pic from 3sx/MB943294 has those two connections right?

I guess I am on the search for the two connectors:)

Here is the back if my radio:
http://www.3sgto.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=1412&d=1288824608
It has the single 14 pin connector as well as a smaller connector for the steering wheel controls.
The wiring in the car has two connectors, a 6 pin and a 9 pin, which plug right in to the older/single DIN radios (the 2-Plug Harness on 3SX http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_viewItemBundle.asp?idProduct=26292). The double din radios, like mine, use the single 14 pin connector (the 1-Plug Harness on 3SX). To connect the 14 pin connector to the car wiring you will need an adapter like the one I mentioned. It might already be there, depending on what was in the car before and what the previous owner did to it. You'll have to take a look at what's there.
The reason I mentioned it is that my '92 came with the single DIN radio, which I didn't like. I bought another MB943294 off E-Bay but to my dismay it didn't come with the adapter, and I couldn't plug it in! Fortunately the seller was able to dig it up but it cost me another $5 plus shipping... If I had known that the wiring in the car didn't match the radio I would have asked for the adapter upfront, or found a different seller if he didn't have it.
Hopefully you won't have to go through this, there'll be a 14 pin connector waiting for you when you put it in. If instead you find the 2 plugs you'll be off on a hunt...
