Adding Radio to 1735M

[TheLandofSnipers]

So I popped the radio cover plate off yesterday and see the power/speaker/antenna plugs. Looks like any old car radio should fit.

Is there a Massey plug to adapt to a generic radio or should I just remove the wires from the two existing plugs and splice into the radio I buy?

There is, on my 1742 I found it in a clear plasric bag under the seat and on my 1755 I found it in the manual pocket on the seat back.
If yours is not there anywhere your AGCO dealer can order it and I believe I remember seeing one on Amazon when I ordered the Bluetooth microphone for the factory radio. And the only reason I have a factory radio is because they threw it in on the tractor deal I never would have paid for the overpriced stereo otherwise I would have gone after market as well.

I'll look under the seat etc.
Thanks!

Heck, do like I did.

Visit the auto recycle yard and buy a car radio,
AM/Fm with programmed stops and all 25$.
How can U lose?
May not say Deere or Kubota but it does the job.

OP was refering to the Massey wiring harness plug to mating connector to wire in an aftermarket radio.

Mine was in the plastic toolbox mounted on the back.

I ordered a wire harness adapter under $10 (Metra 70-1784) over the internet that allowed me to wire the aftermarket radio to the MF factory pigtails in the cab roof area on my 2800m series, I am pretty sure the factory pigtails on the 1700 series and possibly earlier models will fit also. I did not want to cut and splice any factory wires wile under warranty, and it does make a clean connection. The Metra adapter was not totally the same wire colors to match the stereo or the cab wires because it shows fitment for a VW car but all you have to do is visually follow the wires path and connect them. For cab wire schematic refer to the first post of this thread by:RichardGD

This wiring was correct for my 1735. I just cut the factory connector off and spliced it to the radio harness. So I've got AM/FM radio, streaming and Bluetooth phone in the tractor now. I feel pretty up town.
