Not easy to see but if I look in there or put my finger in there it's just a flat surface with no nut or anything. So perhaps I can try just prying them off.

Searched the internet and not much info in general and found nothing for the Fifth Ave. I popped the front left cap off to see what was holding it on and there is a some kind of metal cap but unlike any other pictures I've seen, mine has no screw on it. It's just plane flat metal so I have no...

Thanks. Can you snap the page on the speakers too just for good measure? I'm not seeing any colors there that match what is in my dash opening... other than RD and YL which I assume are red and yellow. Might have to go trial and error but put them on the volt meter first and see which are power.

Previous owner replaced factory radio with a POS Dual and clipped the factory harness. I purchased a Metra harness for connecting wires to the factory radio. Problem is the car radio diagrams I find on all of the car audio databases don't match the colors I have in the dash. I see: red...

Wow can't believe I left that part out. 1985 Chrysler Fifth Av

Car drives fine when full but once it's parked it will dump a massive amount of fluid. My son replaced the pan gasket and filter but no change. He crawled under the car and says it looks like it's coming from the top. We are handy and can fix most things but transmission has just been a no way...

More like what Mopar am I starting. It's an '85 Fifth Avenue that my son bought off Craigstlist. It's got a massive transmission leak so for now it's sitting in the garage until we can get it looked at. It runs so the project is just beginning. Back windows don't go up or down. Front windows do...
