Great product, all the research on internet said this would not fit a 2002 mustang GT convertible with factory Mach 6 CD changer but it did, don't why they suggest the other but oh well

Terrible, yet recommended by Crutchfield

As others have said, it doesn't work with the Mustang GT MACH 460 (2003). The power cuts out, the speakers randomly cut out. If you wiggle the connector, it cuts out. I've been fighting it for over a year. What's really bad is that this is the wiring that is recommended for my car, but it is terrible.

Sub harness does not work for 2000 lincoln ls premium stereo

The larger connector worked perfectly. The smaller did not. Same problem as other reviewrs with Mustang - the pin rows are too far apart on the subwoofer mating plug., with the pins lining up with the release notches rather than with the sockets for the pins. Hoping to find another shell and transfer over, or a product that will work.

Wiring Harness Made It Simple

The wiring harness for the 2002 Mustang worked like a charm and the wire colors actually matched all the colors of the corresponding receiver colors which made it easy to double check against the wiring schematic provided by the receiver manufacturer and Crutchfield. I had only one question for Tech Support relative to an unused connector in the car that didn't connect to the new harness. He quickly related that it was not needed and he was right. All functons of the new receiver worked the first time without a hitch with this wiring harness. I soldered all the wiring connections and used heat shrink tubing and finally taped the loose wires of the harness together to make a really neat job and it all fit perfectly.

Better sound by "not following" directions exactly

Harnesses worked great with my 2003 Mustang Convertible and the JVC KW-HDR720 I was adding. My stock radio had 3 harnesses connected to it. This kit only comes with 2. Doesn't seem to be an issue as the JVC is using all 8 speakers (4 tweeters and 4 large). Wire colors matched perfectly with my JVC's wires. One tip -- The instructions specify plugging the RCA plugs on the second harness into the subwoofer RCA jacks on the stereo. On the JVC, that resulted in "dull" sounds. I tried plugging them into the "Front" line-out jacks instead and the sound came alive! Much better frequency response and fuller sound. Bass is pretty good as well. The JVC KW-HDR720 has 3 sets of RCA jacks on the rear of the unit -- Subwoofer, Front, and Rear. For me, the Front ones worked better. For reference, my Mustang doesn't have the tweeter amp under the factory radio...they were driven off the factory radio and are now driven by the JVC (what you'd probably want anyway). I'm assuming the large speakers (2 front, 2 rear) are driven off 2 amps behind the back seat -- I never looked for those. Those seem to work well with the JVC utilizing the tip I gave above.

Receiver Wire Harness

Wiring harness worked fine. This was my first radio de-install and new intstall. Two calls to tech support one for mounting kit, the other for wiring got me back on track, There was nothing on the wiring sheet explaining where to put the blue/white Amplifier turn-on wires.

Reciever wiring harness

Overall the instructions were really pretty good. Pretty much all the wires on the Harness from the Pioneer deck matched the new Mustang harness. The colors even matched, even though the instructions said they may not. The only exception is that my stock stereo had 3 separate harnesses and the wiring sheet said nothing about that. It would have been better if there was a note on the sheet explaining that the 2 new harnesses would replace the 3 from the stock deck. My call to Crutchfield took care of that question. Oh yeah, there was nothing on the wiring sheet explaining where to put the blue/white Amplifier turn-on wires. Another call to Crutchfield was needed for that.

2002 Mustang Convertable

The wiring harness is an excellent alternative to hard wiring the unit. The JVC KW-500 radio has about the same approach that the Crutchfield instructions use. If you have any type of wiring expierence, you should not have any problems. I noticed in the JVC instructions that it will warn you when you turn it on the first time if you have a wiring error. I cannot verify this because I got it right the first time. I did check to see if the plugs fit before I started wiring it up.

Incorrect Harness for my 2001 Mustang GT 'Vert

Like other reviewers here, upon arrival, I noticed one harness (amp ground/power to RCA) doesn't fit my 2001 Mustang GT Convertible with MACH 460. The adapter is too small, and the factory jack is too large. I called support (very helpful) and they sent me the correct part #120705701 that day. They should offer a harness set that combines both of these parts to fit the Mustang correctly. ***If you have a '01-'03 Mustang with MACH 460, this harness WILL NOT fit correctly. Only one piece will fit. The other part required is in #120705701 (search this number up top and you'll see what I mean.)***

There's a second harness that could fit!!!!!

I called Crutchfield - who by the way was remarkably helpful - and let them know I saw a different harness kit: Item# 120705701. They mail one out for free and it got here very fast. It took me about 4 weeks to get to trying new harness but Item# 120705701 seems to be PERFECT for my 2003 Mustang convertible. The speakers that are against the windows in front say 'Mach' on them if that helps. Thanks Crutchfield!!!! Top notch support.

nice kit

The kit is pretty nice. I've only installed a car stereo once and this makes it pretty easy. I got stuck powering the Ford Mach-460 subwoofer but one call to Crutchfield got that straight. There was only 1 small issue with the connections. The white connector did not really snap-in tightly to the Ford connecter in the car. It kept coming unconnected. I plugged it in as hard as I could and then wrapped the entire connection tightly with electrical tape. Everything seesm to work fine but I'll have to run around this summer to see if it stays connected. I figure it will since I wrapped it so tightly with the tape.

Junk; does not work on 2002 Gt coupe mach 460

I have installed car stereo products for a good part of my life and this wiring harness simply will not work. Car was a 2002 Ford mustang gt w/ factory mach 460 system. The factory plug controling the amplifiers WILL not fit into the harness crutchfield provides. It is to large. You can stick the two together, wiggle around the harness and you can hear the amps cut on and off. If you want to rig, do so at your on risk. I can see the harness coming loose over time. I see by reading the feedback here im not the only one with this problem.

Bass & Amp didn't work Mach 460

2002 Mustang Mach 460 At first I couldn't get the bass and amps to work. Called CF once and they said to check the wires. Lot's of references on the Net of other people having the same problem. I accidently found the white connector on the 5519 harness wouldn't fit tight. The pins on the connector were smaller than the ones on the car's harness. They are also very easy to bend. I put a wire bundle zip tie between the two as a quick fix and it now works great. Others have taken the connector completely out and straight wired the harness. This defeats the whole purpose.

Adapter cable

This product works like a charm. The instructions are clear with one exception...what to do with the negative dimmer wire...didn't know if I should ground it or what I called the support folks and was told to just cap it. The display works fine and dims with the headlights on with just the illumination wire connected. This was used on a 03 Mustang that originally had the mach 460 system.

Perfect for 03 Mustang with Mach stereo

This harness worked perfectly for installation of an aftermarket Sony radio. Installation did not require any further items. High pass filters were not needed. I used the sub outputs from the radio. They worked better than full frequency preamp outputs even though they are mono. You may want to consider limiting your radio selection to one with a true subwoofer output for this application.

Good but could be better

I was pleased with the adapter overall, but I had one disappointment. My only disappointment was that the adapter only has one set of rca outputs . This causes both the door and rear speakers to be on the same channel, which lowers the tuning capability of the system. Other than that the adapter works fine and was easy to install.
