Hello 914 World! I'm a new owner of a 914 that long overdue. Got so much great info from here and been working on it slowly and it's been amazing all that 914World members help each other!
Now I got my dash restored and the gauges all looking nice and new with a few upgrades and need help with installing a stereo.

My 914 has an antenna but no stereo wires, can someone please tell me which wires I would need to tap into to get my stereo installed correctly.

Thank all in advance!!!

Don’t run a long screw through the firewall, chances are you might put a hole in your gas tank.

let me repeat that from one who has done it.

DO NOT drill or screw through the firewall.
the Gas tank will get punctured and then you get to remove the gas tank in the fastest way you can think of....then clean up all the fuel...then let it air out....
Its a bad lesson.

For sure will not do that...I'm not brave enough and am becoming more and more careful as I work on my 914....well because I've already had my share of mistakes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
