i checked the faq site n the wiring diagram.. hmmm bit different. maybe because i have a 94 3 ltr. anyone with the TT's have the same looking layout.

from the faq's i found four of the speaker's on the green plug, but that plug is not on the wiring diagram, so cannot be sure they are.

am a lil confused??

Perhaps you have a different factory stereo? There are many different models/types. Our '95 has the "premium" unit, with the rear sub-woofer, these units cannot be used in cars without the sub-woofer, apparently, like our '97 (both 3.0 n/a).

mine is the single cd player with the sub. mike since you have the same player as mine, did the wiring look like my above pictures. did you replace your head unit. any help will help.

Sorry mate, didn't replace head unit (had enough fun putting one in our other import, a Wizard) happy with the std one, other than the crappy Japanese FM band.

damn. was working on it today, found the positive, ignition, and ground wooo hoo. now just need the bloody speakers.

was doing some trial and error, the green plug i thought that had the speaker wires, well i connected the speaker wires from the deck to these and...no sound.

if anyone can get a wiring diagram for the 3 ltrs will be great.

thanks anyway mike

The other way is to buy a 9 volt battery find the speaker wires back from the speakers connect the 9 volt Battery and u should hear the speaker pop easy to do cost about a buck to find whats what

You should not use a 9V battery for chasing speaker wires, a 1.5 battery is adequate and a 9V battery can cause too much damage.
Like Richard said, you won't find any speaker wires up front unless the stereo is the absolute base model with no CD.
