Not much to it really. Most of the wires were in the back. Headsets and handsets were plugged into interphone boxes, not the radio itself.

I found this, which may help. http://www.ali-larter.de/sherman/usrads.html

Note that this page is pirated from the old (and much missed) AFV Interiors page created by Mike Kendall. You might want to grab the info off it while you can, as it may not be around for very long.
