I saved the original internal organs for posterity. I used a shop in Crystal, MN that was recommended by our MN Street Rod Association. I'm sure you could find someone more local to you.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1427744219786_10582" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1427744219786_10519" dir="ltr">BTW, you can get a single speaker with dual cones to handle the stereo wiring if you choose to go that direction. I think it was the late, great Steve Laifman that recommended using small marine speakers under the dash on port and starboard to expand the stereo sound. I did this and love the results. And no one can tell by looking at the set up. Folks love the look of the LAT-72 installed at shows!</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1427744219786_11130" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1427744219786_11129" dir="ltr">Randy Z.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1427744219786_11128" dir="ltr">Duluth, MN<br></div> <br><div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div style="display: block;" class="yahoo_quoted"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> On Monday, March 30, 2015 3:03 PM, awtiger--- via Tigers <tigers@autox.team.net> wrote:<br> </font> </div> <br><br> <div class="y_msg_container">Hey, guys:<br><br>I'm now deep into the electrical restoration of my Tiger, as in installing a complete harness from British Wiring. I've got all the wiring out of the car at this point and am taking care of a few other items that need attention under the dash before it all goes back in, and one of those items is my radio. I have a LAT-72 Motorola radio kit in my car that has never worked. The reason it has never worked (and I found out the hard way...) is because the radio itself is a positive ground unit out of an earlier Alpine. Unfortunately, when you hook up a positive ground radio in your Tiger without realizing it's a positive ground unit, all you get after a few seconds of music is "sizzle sizzle," and then nothing. I've been told by folks before that the ground orientation on a radio can easily be switched, so here's my question...do any of you guys know where I might be able to send this radio to have that done and then have it repaired? I'm not looking for a high-quality audio experie<br> nce here; I just want it to work and play over the single speaker provided with the LAT-72 kit. Can anyone point me in the right direction?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Andy Walker<br>Edmond, OK<br>_______________________________________________<br><br><a ymailto="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net" href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net">tigers@autox.team.net</a><br><br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/archive" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums: <a href="http://www.team.net/forums" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/tigers/zimme008@yahoo.com" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/tigers/zimme008@yahoo.com</a><br><br><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
