Hi all I posted this yesterday but I think I got it wrong so I will try again,I am trying to upgrade from the original Ford cassette  player,have purchased harness adaptors but discover I think that an amplifier was part of the original installation so the cables don't fit if I bypass the amplifier I lose the rear speakers, any body any idea where the rear speaker wires run? Thank you. The M&M's

In my 1999 Duetto, all four speakers connected direct to the back of the original Ford unit. In all later coachbuilt vans, AS had just connected the rear speakers in parallel with the front but didn't investigate where they had done it.
