David Sinn asked about connectors for the stock stereo earlier today.  I

gave some info about that last month.  See my post (part) below:

I've been asked many times where to find the plugs for the back of the

Miata radio.  Today I saw some of the shelf at the local Pep Boys store.



A set of two are in one package, i.e., the smaller H.R. speaker plug and

the larger power and door speakers plug.  A plug for the CD was not

included.



The package label:

$9.99

MWH-856CL

Car Stereo Wire Harness (note: not a harness, just a few inches of wire)

MX-5 Miata 1989 - 95



Ai American International

1040 Avenida Acaso

Camarello, CA 93012  



A paper inside the package gives the pin-out connections for the radio's

requirements and for the speakers.  I meant to write down what the paper

said about the head rest speakers + and - connections so that I could

check to see if they were correct when I got home to look at my

records.  Now that I'm home I see that I didn't write enough down to

tell for sure.  



However, for their H.R. plug:

violet         right H.R. (+) 

Violet/black   right H.R. (-)

green          left H.R.  (+)  

green/black    left H.R.  (-)



The above information is correct, and if I recall the package correctly

the paper inside says the same thing.
