I got my 96 240sx about a month ago and came with a ****ty stock tape deck. I know the previous owner had a cd player in there bcuz I saw cut outs for subs in the back and when I replaced the front right speaker I noticed it was an aftermarket speaker. I took my old head unit (cd player) out of my crashed 95 240sx and tried installing it in my 96 240sx. I put in three wires. The 2 huge clunker which I'm guessing connects to my speakers and then the black one right next to it which I'm guessing is the power. The antenna wire doesnt fit but do I need that for the cd player to work? Am I forgetting about any other wires? I checked the audio fuses and they aren't blown. Any help would be appreciated.

Depending on what kind of radio you are installing the antenna must be connected. I have installed Sony and Kenwood and couldnt' get either one to work if the antenna cable isn't installed. There should be no problem installing it though since they are all pretty much standard. And by the way, black is never power. Black is either ground or antenna. I need more details from you to be sure though.
