Re: 76 - C10 - Wiring upgrades/replacements/options

Quick update. I fixed the reception issue with the head unit. I pulled it out of the dash (it’s held in by friction and spit). There is two antenna cables back there. One goes to the dash/window but whatever it used to connect to is long gone. The other goes to the back of the cab. At some point someone fitted an antenna in the step well on the passenger side. I can only presume it was a whip antenna. Anyway there’s a hole in the cab but the antenna and mount are long gone. I went to orielly and got a side mount antenna. Hooked it up (there’s already holes for a mount) and I now have reception on the radio. It’s still a crap radio with no other connectivity option but at least I can listen to the radio. The speakers are not bad as it turns out.
