1989 T-Bird Super Coupe JBL Sound System

Post by sqtbird »

Hello Everyone...How can you determine if you have got a factory original type radio/cassette player for the 1989 T-Bird SC with a JBL sound system? What all is needed to complete the JBL sound system? What codes or numbers do I need to find?

A previous owner of my Super Coupe installed an aftermarket sound system into the T-Bird. I want to have the original type back in. The original window sticker calls out for the JBL sound system option.

Thank you in advance for any info you can share.

The factory radio for a 1989 Thunderbird Super Coupe is: E9SF-198165-BC. This radio includes clock and cassette player. The JBL option includes an amplifier below the rear package shelf with a 6" woofer and 4 JBL speakers.

This radio is known for having leaking capacitors on the electronics board, and electrolyte damage to the circuit board is common.

Hope this helps in your search.
