My base '96 came with the wiring harness for the headrest speaker from the
radio that ended on the floor under the seats. I had to acquire the rest
of
the wiring and thread it up to the headrest. I also had to gouch out
enough
foam in the headrest to position the speakers. I don't think they work
properly. If I fade to the rear, I have to turn the volume up so much
that
the front speakers still dominate. I can't really get a balanced sound.
I have a 96.5, so I theoretically do not have the "Jeff Anderson" problem,
but maybe I do. Never figured it out.
