n15m0 Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 ok, found the problem.... long story short, dodgy multimeter!!! lol (thats why you dont buy cheap ones... lol)and yes i did throw it against a wall!!! lol next question, is there a factroy hole in the firewall somewhere where i run the power cable for the amp? and the parcel shelf - how do you take it out? I have these wierd metal brackets right across the speaker holes and they gota go if im gona put speakers in there. I found the rear speaker cables, they were hidden near the speaker holes and sticky taped Im planning on finishing this today so i'll post up some pics once its done! I found out the hard way, you need to remove the rear side pillar cover as pictured. I didn't at first and broke the seat belt bracket. Its a hard pull but it should come out.

turtlepower Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 know its a bit late but i just put a new stereo in to fix the shitty radio reception. The reason is in japan they have 2 antenna's 2 different signals or something that's why the stock units have that fm diversity on it and a 2 pronged antenna plug, when i pulled mine apart the moron that installed the signal booster hooked it up to the wrong antenna. only 1 antenna will work u just have to test them. Works perfectlly now. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/136719-stereo-installation-in-an-r34/page/2/#findComment-3562156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
