Help wiring up some old Hyundai radios.

[pblanton]

I bought three Hyundai radios on Craigslist, from a guy who works in a car audio shop. I guess they were going to throw them away and I got them all for $30.

I probably got screwed.

What I want to do is wire them up to a power supply and some speakers (I have a pile of small, old speakers), put them in an enclosure and put one in the garage, one in the barn and one in the henhouse, so I have a radio handy wherever I happen to be.

They are Visteon radios made in Mexico. They are mostly identical, except for two are gray and one is black.

Do I have a prayer of getting these things to work, or am I boned?

Sell them all on e-bay and buy a hand held radio to carry around with you

But... I don't want to.

I understand wanting to mess around but this is very inefficient. What are you going to do about an antenna? What is your power supply going to be?

If you have to ask this ive little faith in it working. That said, its super easy. You need a computer power supply and to know which wires what.
