Metra 70-1785 Receiver Wiring Harness

The Metra 70-1785 wiring harness makes connections between your new car stereo and your car's electrical system. First, attach the color-coded wires on your Crutchfield-supplied harness to the wires from your new stereo. If you're not using a soldering iron, we recommend that you purchase some wire connectors to secure the connections. Check out our handy article on three ways to connect the wiring harness here.

Once this harness is connected to your new stereo, you'll be able to plug right into your car's factory radio connector. In order to use your factory amplifier, you'll have to connect the RCA connectors on this harness to the preamp outputs on your new receiver – you'll want to pick a car stereo with at least two sets of preamp outputs (front and rear).

This harness makes installing your new stereo easier, and allows you to put the factory radio back if you sell your vehicle. A detailed instruction sheet comes with the harness. Please enter your vehicle information or call an Advisor at 1-888-955-6000 to find out if this adapter is compatible with your vehicle. Warranty: 60 days.

Installation Note: This harness uses your factory amplifier; your new receiver must have front and rear preamp outputs to connect this harness.

Please read this important note: This harness may not contain provisions for every wire needed to complete your installation, and it will not accommodate special navigation, video, or factory steering wheel control connections. You will need a special adapter if you want your factory steering wheel audio controls to work with your new stereo.
