Installation: 2002 Taurus
This siren will be mounted onto the vehicle horn’s mounting plate near the drivers side front tire. The vehicle horn’s mounting holes will be used to mount the SA314 siren speaker.
WARNING! Loud siren noise can cause hearing loss. Minimize exposure. Close windows when using.
1. Since the siren will be mounted upside down, its drain hole is now on top. This requires another drain hole to be drilled into the siren before mounting (See “Drilling the drain hole”).
2. Mount siren onto the bracket using the supplied mounting hardware. Install a spacer nut onto each of the bracket’s Pem Studs (Fig. 2).
3. Remove the large (full vehicle width) plastic splash guard mounted to the front, underside of the vehicle (Fig. 1). This allows access to the vehicle horn.

Remove Factory Radio
STEP 1: Locate and remove two (2) phillips screws that secure the top of the plastic panel that covers the radio and air conditioner controls. They should be located next to the air conditioner vent levers directly above the (2) air conditioner vents. Pull the plastic panel gently from the top to remove it from the dash.
STEP 2: The radio will be held in with two (2) 7mm bolt screws; one on each side of the radio. Remove both.
STEP 3: To remove the radio, pull firmly. Unplug all connectors (1 blue, 1 white, 1 black) from the rear of the radio. Unplug the antenna cable from the rear of the radio. The radio is now free to be removed from the dash panel.
STEP 4: Since the opening is so big in the dash, The Install Doctor recommends using the plastic mounting bracket attached to the bottom of the radio just removed.
This bracket can then be attached to the bottom of the plastic radio installation kit and assure that this kit is properly aligned and secured to the dash.

The GMRC-03 is designed to be used in Cadillac’s that do not have Onstar or amplified systems. It will retain the warning chimes that are lost when the factory radio is removed. The GMRC-03 will also provide a 12 volt switched accessory wire for proper radio operation. *Note: The GMRC-03 can be used in Cadillac’s that come with a factory amplifier; however the factory amplifier must be bypassed and the speaker wires on the GMRC-03 must not be used. Running new wires to the speakers is recommended. If the Cadillac also has Onstar, that feature will be lost.
