Expert: - 8/6/2008


Question
I have a 95 Lincoln Town Car Signature Series with the standard AM/FM cassette stereo.  I have a factory Lincoln JBL head unit and changer I got out of a 96 Lincoln Continental.  I also pulled the amps, etc. out of the 96 Continental.  Will the JBL stereo work in my Town Car?  Do I need to change the amps in the trunk as well and/or need any wiring changes?  As for the changer, do you know if the Town Car is pre-wired to have a changer?  Thank you so much for your time on this matter.

Answer
the vehicle is not prewire, also the vehicle don't have the cables for the amplifier ,
and the last thing you need to worry about is that the radio in your vehicle is at front

in the jbl system the radio is in the trunk the analog or digital amplifier

look at the antenna plug in your radio
is there a antenna plug in the new radio
most likely not because it is on the amplifier

good luck
