What’s in the box? | In-depth notes Product Research Product Research What's in the box? OEA-4 OEM Amp interface (with 8-wire input with bare wires/8-wire output with 2 white/black rectangular connectors) Flat-blade screwdriver (attached to interface module) 13 Crimp caps Instruction sheet Our Product Research Team At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere. That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Compatibility: The OEA-4 (model C4NN03) is a non-electronic interface that allows an aftermarket high-power stereo to integrate into select 1994-up Nissan and Infiniti vehicles with Bose premium factory systems. Please check the Crutchfield Vehicle Selector for compatibility for your vehicle. Adjustment Gain Controls: Four rotary gain controls (front left, front right, rear left, rear right) are located recessed inside the adapter chassis. There is a small flat-blade screwdriver attached to the adapter's case, and its use is recommended. The controls are very fragile and sensitive, and a slight adjustment will change volume dramatically. Harnesses: The adapter's input wires are approximately 5-1/2" long with bare ends. These splice to the new receiver's speaker output wires. The adapter's output wires are approximately 11" long and terminate into two white and black rectangular Molex plugs. There are 5 additional wires coming from one of the white/black plugs and 2 wires from the other white/black plug that should be spliced to the receiver's wiring harness. The Molex plug ends are molded to match with the factory wiring harnesses. Crimp caps are provided for wire splices.

I had to call Scosche to find out what to do. (Nissan Pathfinder LE) Pros: Works once everything is set up Cons: incomplete installation directions for a Nissan Pathfinder LE Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 Very poor construction Written By , pittsburgh pa on Sunday, October 16, 2011 Out of the package, one wire was crimped through the insulation. I was able to tape this. After connecting the adaptor and adjusting the gain, the first potentiometer actually fell apart when I touched it with a screw driver. The other three gains did adjust and the adapter does seem to work. Very poor construction for an electronic device. Was this review helpful?

IS not has cheap as others have said, put it in and adjusted the gain and worked perfectly. I would not try and strong arm it, but normal pressure is fine. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Easy install, directions need help Written By Steve M., Phoenix, AZ on Saturday, July 02, 2011 Installing the new Kenwood KDC-348U in my wife's Infiniti QX4 was fairly easy with this adapter. All of the Kenwood wires matched the color coding of this Scosche-brand adapter. The only real issue I had was connecting the power antenna control, which required splicing 2 wires from the radio harness to one wire from the adapter harness - not covered in either the radio's or the adapter's documentation - fortunately, it only took one call to Crutchfield's excellent tech support to work through it. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 Nissan/Infiniti Factory Integration Adapter Written By Maximaaaa, Oregon on Thursday, May 12, 2011 It does work well, the amp sounds pretty good with it. However, as stated by many others, the knobs are HORRIBLY designed. Right out of the box one of them was broken and fell out. If someone is thinking of purchasing this, I would recommend going with something else(if there is) since the knobs are cheap. Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 3 out of 5 Works Written By PM, LA, CA on Saturday, April 02, 2011 Product comes with all the connects you need. My system required black to B&W ground connection which is the only thing that I would not of guessed - all other installation steps you won't even need instructions for - it's all pretty obvious. I'm not sure the ohm conversion that takes place is the only requirement that needs to be addressed. The new stereo works fine but the overall sound is not the quality is not quite up to the previous Bose system that I had. This could be because of the new stereo or it could be partially because of the Scosche - I don't know. They sure make it easy and painless to install. The same device elsewhere costs much more. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 BE CAREFUL WITH GAIN KNOBS!!!!! Written By Jonny, Texas on Monday, March 28, 2011 Sounds great. A previous "professional" installation they didn't know to use one of these. Sounded terrible for years. Crutchfield told me I needed one. New receiver sounds great. When I was adjusting volume, a gain knob broke off. I didn't want to wait on replacement, so I used a pocket knife to adjust that pot. Be VERY CAREFUL with gain knobs!!!! Once I worked through that, it worked great, though. Thanks, Crutchfield for getting me this part at a reasonable price. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Nissan/Infiniti Factory Integration Adapter Written By GMK, Hilo, HI on Friday, November 12, 2010 Made installing my Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD in my '02 Altima a snap. However, the instructions are too generic. There are 2 harness connectors to the OEM dash but the instructions implied there was only one harness. This resulted in having 2 wires to factory remote amp. For the 02 Altima with premium Bose system, you must use the BLUE/WHITE wire and not the Blue wire. Also recommend using butt connectors to join wires rather than the stuff provided so you can have a neater bundle of wires. Was this review helpful?
