1986 Rolls Royce Corniche II


Recommended Posts

First post in... ohh... eight years. :)  Been out of the installer game for awhile and don't remember doing any older Rolls when I was working at the shop.

Anyone done a radio replacement in one?  My father-in-law asked if I'd put a backup camera, flip-out, and satellite radio in his uncle's(which I believe is Aretha Franklin's old car).  I haven't went and looked at it yet(going Saturday morning to look and give an estimate) but it looks like a standard single din radio in some and a 1.5 din in others(make a 99-4544 work? or something custom).  I'm guessing no antenna adapters and obviously a hardwire.

Basically wondering if there is any sort of amp in it?  or any oddities in the wiring(common ground or things of that nature) or restrictions in dash space I might run into?  Basic Googling hasn't turned up much.

Should be interesting, good luck finding a wiring diagram, I’d check all the power and grounds on the old radio see what’s key on or straight 12v . I like shit like this to work on there’s no right way gotta start with just basic wiring and figure it all out. Hopefully U don’t have to start pulling door panels to check color of speaker wires. Take some pics and don’t break anything I’m sure they don’t make parts for them anymore. Lol.
