Question
i was wondering do they make 1996 mercury sable wiring harness me and a friend bought a jvc cd player and we went to buy a wiring harness to hook it up and we ran into alot of problems. 1 walmart nor autozone nor o reillys have one 2 96 sables dont have antennas which the cd player needs to turn on and 3 i couldnt find a harness online anywhere i even tried crutchfield. so is there a way to manually hook up the cd player and a way to solve the no antenna problem

Answer
so how the radio  gets am fm ?  air waves ? laser signal ? it looks like you need to learn a litle more about  your vehicle before you do the installation

also you need to find the radio, this is in the trunk left side remove the side carpet

all your wires power speaker wires antenna are there , that metal box is your radio not the controls at front

you can get the harness from oemautosound.com  this cables are 15 feet long to reach the front

good luck with the installation
