  1. Hello everyone. Here is the problem: I have bought 96 es300 about 6 month ago. The original stereo was a wreck on it . I guess the owner liked to experiment with the radio. Anyway it came down to the point where i got a used original stereo on e-bay. It came in fine and i have installed it but i have noticed that SEARCH/TRACK button on the left side of the stereo was not lit up but instead CD light was lit up eventhought it did not have cd changer (***** removed it before selling). The cd light should not be lit up if there is no cd changer. Anyway when you switch to radio only buttons 123456 would lite up, when you put in tape then green markings on top of the numbers would light up but numbers would go off. Eventually i have installed a cd changer five days ago. I thought that the previous owner had crossed the wires somwhere and if i put cd changer then SEARCH/TRACK button would turn on. But to my dissapointment it never happend. At this point i have all original audio including a changer but when i switch on radio i will have numbers lit up 123456, when i switch to the tape i will get numbers off and green markings on, and for the changer i will have a red markings on without numbers glowing. Does anyone know what can i do about it?
  2. the front ones are 6 1/2 the rear ones are 6*9 You should get two way speakers for bolth back and front otherwise consider a subwoofer regards
  3. :P Ok here is what you have to do: 1. Remove the seating surface on the rear sit. It has two clamps so just pull it up hard. 2. Then you will see two bolts, that hold back part of the seat. once you unscrew these two bolts, push the back part of the sit up, since it is latched with two hooks. 3. Take rear stop light cover out it's just snaps so pull it out, should not be hard. 4. Here comes the intense part. The rear cover is made out of card board, you would have to bend it a little to pull it out but do not use too much force since you will brake it. Just try to pull it lightly and then see what obsticles you have while removing it. Took me about 5 minutes to figure out the most painless way to do it. The cover will come off with speaker covers so pretty much you left with two speakers which are easy to remove. Couple of screws. Whole project takes about 25 minutes for newbe. Good luck. P.S. PICK YOUR SPEAKERS CAREFULLY I had changed mine to pioneer three way speaker system with 150 watt output and they do not provide any bass. If you are putting aftermarket speakers, consider two way or expect on putting a subwoofer in order to get at least some base. regards
