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 Crutchfield 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.

Connections:

  • 12V constant power
  • 12V switched power
  • chassis ground
  • power antenna turn-on
  • dimmer
  • left front speaker +/-
  • right front speaker +/-
  • left rear speaker +/-
  • right rear speaker +/-

Note: Most vehicles will require additional installation parts — please identify your vehicle if you haven’t done so, then check here for a list of parts. You can also call an Advisor for more information.

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.

Harness installed in a 97 Accord

Written By Steve, Nashville TN on Friday, May 10, 2013
Installed in a 1997 Honda Accord EX
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
No problem at all. Plastic connector lined up well, all wires color-coded exactly, instructions done well. I chose to solder my connection and then heat-shrink the insulation, but it could work fine with less-desirable crimp-on connectors. Good choice for the do-it-yourselfer rather than paying a stereo shop.

Perfect fit. Great harness

Written By PDaddy59, Holly Springs, NC on Thursday, January 10, 2013
Installed in a 1996 Honda Civic
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Fit perfectly in my sister-in-law's 1996 Honda Civic. Major thanks to Crutchfield for noting that you had to split two wires from the second radio harness to get the dome lights to work. Honda bundles some basic car function (dome lights, keyless entry) with the stock head end, which is just bizarre. Thank God for Crutchfield and information on how to get around this.
Pros:
Great value for the money. Good sound and lots of flexibility for set up.
Cons:
Interface is unduly complicated. As noted in previous reviews, the asinine "demo" function is of no use to consumers and should be eliminated by JVC.

As described, but missing some pins

Written By Anonymous, New Jersey on Wednesday, January 02, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Pretty standard wire harness.
Pros:
Colors are industry standard so they matched the stereo connector wires. The wires are also labeled.
Cons:
Missing a pin for the steering wheel control, so if you get a steering wheel remote adapter, you will have to tap into this wire through the original wires.

Worked ok.

Written By Coastdownhills, Hendersonville, TN on Friday, August 17, 2012
Installed in a 1996 Honda Accord LX
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Ordered this to be sure of getting a harness compatible with both my radio and automobile. This is specific for the auto but not for the radio. It requires soldering wires to the radio so the harness with your old radio will probably work. It is nice for the color codes to be the same. Don't know if this is industry standard. It would be nice if they included some heat shrink tubs to cover the wires as wrapping with electrical tape would be a real pain. . Fortunately I do a fair amount of electrical work so it was no big deal. I do remember getting a radio and vehicle specific harness for a Ford years ago that snapped onto both the radio and the auto harness. This is not one of those.
Pros:
Color codes same as radio.and allows one to make connections to radio outside the car.
Cons:
does require soldering and wrapping the insulation would be difficult.

This fit perfectly in my 1992 Honda Accord LX Coupe. It was easy to solder all the wires in my workshop instead of the car and it worked fine from the get-go. The extra wires were fairly easy to push behind the new stereo.

Essential to a stereo installation.

Written By EnergySamus, California on Friday, May 25, 2012
Installed in a 1994 Honda Accord EX
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Made wiring the new stereo to my Accord a whole heck of a lot easier. Instead of soldering the wires together, though, I decided to twist the ends together into a tight ball, then use electrical tape to secure them (this was mainly because I didn't have a solder on hand). Still works the way it should, and my new stereo operates as it should.
Pros:
Makes wiring a breeze. Included with my purchase of a stereo. All the wire colors coordinated with the wiring for my Sony CDX GT565UP
Cons:
None
