I've tried (twice) to install a new stereo in my 306 (S - 98) and have had the following happen. I got the stereo in Ok and the Cd player worked fine. I didn't have an adapter for the antenna so used a copper wire to test recetion and it was great. The next day I used an adapter to link the antenna lead from the car the stereo and after that it wouldn't even swicth on. The same thing happened with the replacement stereo I had. I noticed that the car antenna sparks when it touches certain areas behind the dash. Is there something about the antenna I need to know about? I'm replacing the original stereo because the buttons broke and display went blank (over time).
