Hi New here! Some basic questions...

How's it going?

I just picked up a 1987 MKIII for my "backup" car. (It's an auto) anyway I have a few questions about it.

The Stock radio, although it works, seems to be on it's last legs.. so I pulled it out to replace it with another deck.. I noticed it has two cables running out of the back in addition to the regular wireing harness.. I know one is for the Antenna, what is the other cable for? It looks like a RCA plug at the end, but it's not...

Secondly, I feel like and idiot, becasue I have this idiot light the *just* came on but I can't figure out what's wrong. It's the light on the dash that indicates I have a taillight bulb burnt out (I think, top view of car with tail lights "hi-lighted).. Anyway I don't notice any bulbs burnt out anywhere on the car...

Fianlly I know most of you are probably purists when it comes to working on your cars and do it all yourself, but is there a recommended shop that really knows these Supras inside out at least until I find a good source of Technical knowledge to learn from.

BTW I can't seem to get registered on Supraforums.. anyone know if they are having a problem with thier auto-registration mailer?

Thanks alot for any help in advance..
