Hi everyone, I got a deal on a used '96 240sx that was missing the stock CD player. I got a new CD player head unit, but on closer inspection I noticed that the stereo wires were loose (cut from the plugs that usually connect to the back of the head unit). I have a 1995 maintenance manual but the wire colors in the manual don't match up to the colors of the stereo wiring in my car. Needless to say, this is causing some confusion.

I have checked out a couple of links from this site that refer to stereo wiring diagrams for my model, but so far I haven't found anything that

If I could get some help with a wiring diagram for a 96 240sx or a description of which color wires pertain to what, I would greatly appreciate it.

there are 2 systems possible for your car.I have the schematics for both. I believe the differences are bose or not. does the system have 4 speakers or 6? 2 would be tweeters in the top of the door or in the a pilar trim.

Hi NISTECH, I appreciate your quick reply. In answer to your question, I've got the system with 6 speakers (w. the 2 tweeters). Thanks!
