944S2 - poor reception on radio

[mflower]

I recently bought a 944S2 which came with a nice, nearly new looking pioneer head unit and cd changer.

First problem is that the reception on the radio is awful - like someone has snapped the aerial. Anyone got any advice where to start looking to fix this? (I assume the aerial is integrated into the front or rear screen since I can't find it ?!!)

Second "problem" is that I want to upgrade the speakers but they look to be unusual sizes. Anyone got any recommendations for speaker brands that make a size that fits, and which sound good loud?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Mark

I like it. It's quite pokey once you learn how to drive it, but mine does feel a bit "floaty" at speed. Maybe the suspension / geometry needs an overhaul (or maybe I need to drive slower...) Stereo is the only real irritant.

THANKS! Will have a look tonight...

The screen aerial is plugged into a socket on the right hand lower corner of the scuttle panel, lift the bonnet and you should find it around the osf lower corner of the screen. The socket leads into the car to a small amplifier, this has one black wire that is the power feed from the radio, it earths through the signal ground shielding. I think you will find the amp (black plastic case, around 50mm sq x 25mm thick) tucked under the dash on the right. If you have no power, the amp is faulty or the screen wire is broken you will have no signal, OK?
