This vehicle-specific wiring harness makes connections between your new car stereo and your car's electrical system.

First, attach the color-coded wires on your Cructhfield harness to the wires from your new stereo. If you don't know how to use a soldering iron, we recommend that you purchase some wire connectors that you'll use to attach the Crutchfield harness to your factory harness.

Now, once this harness is connected to your new stereo, you'll be able to plug right into your car's factory radio connector. This harness makes installing your new stereo easier, and allows you to put the factory radio back when you sell your vehicle or return it at the end of the lease. A detailed instruction sheet comes with the harness. Warranty: 60 days.

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.

Features

Crutchfield Wiring Harness: Crutchfield wiring harnesses prevent you from having to cut your vehicle's factory radio plug when replacing your factory radio with an aftermarket head unit. Simply solder or crimp the Crutchfield wiring harness to your aftermarket head unit's harness (solder & crimps not included), plug the aftermarket head unit's plug into the rear chassis of the aftermarket head unit, and plug the Crutchfield wiring harness into your vehicle's factory radio plug.

Note: Installation tools, hardware, & accessories are not included & sold separately. Please see the Accessories tab for recommendations & availability.

Wiring Notes: If the Crutchfield wiring harness is not equipped with a ground wire, you will need to ground the aftermarket head unit's ground wire to the metal chassis of your vehicle. Some vehicle's may require you to bypass the vehicle's factory amplifier (in another location from factory radio) or hardwire certain connections. If your vehicle is equipped with factory steering wheel controls, an additional adapter is required & sold separately.

Work's great

Written By Diabolik, Pittsburgh, PA on Monday, January 23, 2012
 
Fit perfectly into the factory harness, clearly marked. Makes for a neat install
Pros:
Quality, Fit

None. If you are using this in a Nissan Xterra, make sure you don't use the ground wire on the harness ! Head Unit needs to be grounded to the dash frame.

Wrong harness

Written By Phil, Virginia Beach, VA on Thursday, November 03, 2011
 
Did not work/fit on a 2011 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab (w/ standard speakers) - a big inconvenience after going thru the trouble of preparing the wiring, removing stock radio and unplugging everything to get ready to install my JVC KW-XR810. Eagerly started to work on the installation on a Saturday only to be greatly disappointed. Crutchfield could'nt send me a replacement until Tuesday (but they were very apologetic and comp'd me on the replacement). BTW, I placed this order via phone - sales rep and what's on the website say it fits the vehicle. Not so.
Cons:
Wrong harness.

Needs to be redesigned ASAP

Written By DL, PA on Thursday, October 06, 2011
 
This cable does not have the wires built in for steering wheel controls. All Legacy models have the controls, so why doesn't the harness have the wiring??!!! Using this with steering wheel control requires jumping over the harness. What a hassel!

Wiring Harness

Written By Pete P., Windham, Me. on Wednesday, October 05, 2011
 
I opted to solder and tape the connections and that made a solid installation real easy to do. All of the wires were color coded so a one at a time approach made it foolproof.

Could be perfect with a little extra work

Written By Devo, VA on Saturday, September 03, 2011
 
The harness fit a 2010 Subaru Impreza very well -- all connections were solid, and it connected very nicely to the factory harness. The only issue I have with this harness is that it does not include pins 4 and 14, used to connect the steering wheel interface with the head-unit. I ran out to the local big box store to pick up a spare harness, scavenged two wires, and installed them in the correct positions. Worked like a charm, but would have been better to have them installed out of the package.

Why no crimp connectors?

Written By Richard, Orlando, FL on Saturday, August 20, 2011
 
This is my third installation over the years and it doesn't make any sense that you would not include Crimp Connectors. I think most people would use them over solder. You try and make everything else easy for the installer and then you make them go to the store and find and buy Crimp Connectors before they can install the radio. I think most of your customers are end users and not professional installers.
