You mean the socket on the radio? What, exactly, are you trying to do?

Default Here's what I do...

I install HFKs at the dealer and in my store. On the top of the radio is a schematic of the pins on the back. On the vertical plug towards the middle of the radio are the phone input/output pins. Looking at the back of the radio the bottom left pin in that connector is the mute lead. When you ground it, the radio will go into "phone" mode.
The two terminals side-by-side above the mute pin are the speaker input. Feed the speaker output from the HFK into these two pins. Press and hold the "menu" button on the radio and scroll to the phone option to select the sound to come out of either or both front speakers.
You can grab 12V+ and ground from the radio. Make sure you have the radio code if you have to unplug it. I grab 12V+ ignition from the seat heater plug, it's black/white. Check with a meter or test light to make sure.
Pop off the right side dash panel and drop the glovebox and mount the control unit and extra wire to the empty aluminum plate with velcro and cable ties. Route the mic wire down the right 'A' pillar and into the side of the dash. I use a Pana-Vise to mount the phone cradle and run the wires to the left of the glove box assembly instead of taking a chance crimping them by running them through the radio opening.

Default I did a search and jmdp did an install and posted pics using OEM wires and connectors. I also want

a clean install and I was just following his instructions so I bought the harnesses. I can't figure out how to create a link to a thread after seraching for it because the address posted for the http:/ is just the generic search and not the thread number. Anyway it was posted on 10-23-2002 and I tried to email him but got no reply. So anyone know? Otherwise I guess I just flushed about $20 in wires and connectors down the toilet.

Default the connector and wires are put into an open connector slot. You just have to look on the back of

the radio and it tells you what the opening spots are used for. Two are for the speaker + & - and one is for the muting line.

BTW, I did this install with my motorolla T720 pro kit.
