I am looking at the power wire harness for the '97 VW stereo that is going into my '85 Westy. Is has a large red/white wire, a large brown wire, a small grey/blue wire, a small brown/white and a small brown/red. The large red is 12VDC always hot. The large brown is ground. The grey/blue is the dimmer (instrument light) supply. The other two small brown wires I am not sure. I believe one is for the amplied antenna and the other for ? Maybe ground for antenna? Can anyone verify this info? The harness was picked up at a junkyard and came out of a '97 Golf, identical to the stereo donor car (my son's '97 K2). Any help appreciated. I will be installing tonight. By the way, it fits perfectly into the dash. You do need the DIN style antenna, or an adapter (which is what I am using). Jay |
