Radio wiring question

Hi All,

Well my 74 F100 will finally be on the road tomorrow ( after kingpin replacement, rear brake overhaul, new tyres, converting the lighting to UK spec and various other bits) so thoughts have turned to creature comforts.... I am in the UK so th US radio may not work too well but I thought I would give it ago.

I have the wires coming from the radio and there is a two pin plug on the end about 6 inches from the radio.

Now I can't see anywhere to plug it at all! What wires do a connect my plug too??!!

Regards - Paul

PS I would have posted this in the ICE forum but it all looked like newer stuff over there.

Radio wiring question

There should be two sets of plugs.
One set of two wires >
One with a 2'-3" plastic torpedo shaped object on it and another wire.

These are for Power to the radio and the other blue/red stripe wire is for the radio light.
The other harness coming off that is for the speaker on top of the metal dash area.
The other plugs for both should be close.
