While trying to research what Wheel covers (Hubcaps) my '79 LeMans had SUPER Base car. (P01) < Picture?, I looked at my PHS build sheet and it shows my car was ordered with UN9, Radio Suppression. But doesn't list the Radio at all. Unless they didn't. hmm. Anyways my other questions were. Did Radio Delete plates exist on these cars & lastly. Are there any Aftermarket front (3.5") Corner Dash speakers that are plug-in-play with the Factory plugin connectors? or any adaptors you guys can suggest? I am about to pull out my dash this week and want to know. Thanks.

I've had radio delete plates out of early regals, so, yes for at least some of the models.

$7.65 with free shipping on an order over 35 bucks on that jungle website. They also have them for the rear speakers and the radio as well.

Hmm interesting, so. How exactly do these work? I've started to take out the accessories and unbolt my dashboard. I will look for my Corner speaker connectors again tomorrow, It was unfortunate to hear that more than likely i won't be able to use the Stock AM/FM radio with the Subwoofer & Amp lol. :( At least Retro Sound makes a Factory stock style with a Built-in Amp and Bluetooth.

Being a Pontiac tour front speakers may have the same type of connector as the rear speakers. I was going throughthe wire stash to find my new to me front wires from a Grand Prix don't have the same connector as the Monte's original like what was shown,

Didn't know the rear had connectors. I was told your two wires would twist together, for non-originals maybe. lol. There's Bonnieville out at the salvage yard i go too. 1983 or 1986 i can't remember. I should be able to salvage the speakers and connectors, if not i have a complete interior harness from the '78 Grand LeMans i parted out. But the rear ones were gone.
