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-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.
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 saves installation time since you won't have to cut factory wires individually, and this also enables you to re-install the factory radio if needed. 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:
Note: Most vehicles will require additional installation parts please identify your vehicle if you haven’t done so. You can also call an Advisor for more information.
If your stereo gets power but has no sound connect the blue/white wire and blue wire with the corresponding color for the blue wire. The car has an unmarked amp.

This harness did not work with the factory wiring in the 2002 Sonata I used it in. I could get power to the unit but nothing out of the speakers. This made for a waste of several hours on installing the new stereo

This was a time saver. Worth paying Crutchfield $20 to crimp the wires to the OEM harness adapter to make it plug n play. The OEM adapter was complimentary.
Pros: Time saver
Cons: None found
Love love love! Made installation super super easy!
Pros:

This definitely makes installation quite a bit easier. However, the instructions are a little unclear on how to properly wire sub/amp/antennae.

Matched up perfectly
Pros:
Cons:
Only shortcoming was not with the harness, but with the instructions that were sent for my car. A 5 minute call into Crutchfield support to let me know how to hook up the blue and blue/white wires resolved everything. Plenty of length without so much extra wire it was hard to stuff into the dash.

Pros: Right product for the intended purpose and easy to install.
Cons: none
This works great, had everything I needed including wiring for my amp turn on
Pros: Has everything needed
Cons: None
...another successful installation thanks to Crutchfield. I always can count on Crutchfield to guide me prior to the purchase and to make sure I have everything I need when doing self installations. I purchased this for an installation in a friends car. I received everything as ordered and had super fast shipping. We installed an older Sony CD player and the only point of question was with the speaker wires. I feel like the harness that I bought from Crutchfield was spot on with wire colors and labels. However it took a little bit to figure out the corresponding wires on the CD radio harness due to color variation. Ultimately I'm a very satisfied customer and will be buying from Crutchfield again.
Pros: -fast shipping -matched the vehicle wire harness perfectly -great guidance prior to purchasing
Cons: -none
Shipment was quick. Have yet to install
Pros: Standby
Cons: Standby
The product installed easily and was decently priced. Shipping was fast and the Crutchfield team helped me when no one else could! I am and always will be a loyal Crutchfield fan
Pros: None
Cons: Easy install and great price
Fit and worked perfectly in my 2002 Hyundai Accent Sedan first time, right out of the bag, no need to re-config the terminal. Just twist capped it to the head unit's harness (after making sure I didn't need the remote leads wired) and clipped it in and presto. Everything is nice and snug because of the proper build quality. Love it.
Pros: Quality build. Almost fool-proof. Save yourself the stress and labor of cutting into your car's wiring harness.
Cons: None that I can think of.
Good overall experience. I suggest soldering connections as opposed to Crimp connectors.
Pros:
Cons:
This harness plugged right into the cars wiring it was a huge time saver!
Pros:
Cons:
Easy install
Pros: Made it quickly to install my stereo
Cons: None
Amazing product, fits perfect and makes it look clean. Very easy to install. Would recommend.
Pros:
Cons:
All wires labeled had no problems wiring
Pros:
Cons:
Once again, I got exactly what I ordered and because of the excellent selection process on Crutchfield for car audio, it matched my car and new stereo exactly. The thing that impressed me the most was the detailed wiring schematic and additional removal and installation instructions. They were detailed and precise to match my car and new stereo!
Pros: Detailed instructions.
Cons:
This is a well constructed wiring harness. Each wire is labeled and that helps with the install
Pros: Well labeled wires
Cons: none
Simple and it works, duh.
Pros: It works
Cons: none
Worked perfect. Easy install.
Pros:
Cons:
Excellent wiring harness. Colors matched perfect, made install simple.

Work great on new radio, easy to install
Pros: Easy to install

This was a perfect fit, really didn't have any problems installing it.
Pros:
Cons:
wiring for player
Pros: It's wiring fits like a glove

good
Pros: good
Cons: none
As always with Crutchfield, a perfect fit
Pros: Not much gueswork
Cons: None
Easily connects your radio to the car harness without cutting the factory wires.
Pros: Easy, straightforward, easy and, did I say easy?
Cons: The only con is that it doesn't get shipped to you already connected to the radio. :)
Included with my head unit purchase. Don't buy just this...buy a head unit and have this thrown in for $free.99!
Pros: Free!
Cons: Nope
I don't understand how people can rate this product a 3 or lower. This adapter was perfect. Easy to wire to the aftermarket HU wiring loom before the actual HU installation. Plug and pay. Everything worked great.
Pros: Easy to understand instructions
Cons: None
Was very easy to use and worked well. Plugged right in to factory harness.
Pros: easy to use
Cons: none
Made it much easier to install.
Pros: Easy to make wiring connections at the counter instead of in the car.
Cons: Kit should include the recommended wiring connectors. I finally found them at a local shop but had to buy two packs as each pack had several connectors that were larger than needed.
This was so much easier than the last aftermarket stereo I installed (in 1994, using vampire splicers). Using this harness let me solder & sleeve the connections on the bench, which then made the longest in-car part of the project the removal of the dash panel! I'll never again give a second thought to ordering/using one of these!
Pros: Ends were properly and uniformly stripped--all the same length, no severed conductors. Color coding chart was accurate and easy to interpret.
Cons: Wire gauge was heavier than that on the stereo's harness, making the initial twist a little cumbersome.
Just installed into my 2006 Kia Sorento. Looks factory installed with the included install kit and the wiring harness matched exactly so it was a complete "plug and play"!
Pros: Perfect match
Cons: none
Fast shipping and great product
Pros:
Cons:
Helped make installation quick and easy
Pros:
Cons:
As quick as you can wrap, solder and tape when finished. As easy as identifying a few colors.
Pros: Simple, quick and works
Cons: Could have been pre-manufactured with options of cutting unused or unwanted wire(s).
Perfect.
Pros: Price (free), ease of use.
Cons: None
The wiring harness was easy to use and fit right in. The colors all matched up right, as they should. Expect to splice this to the new wiring harness of your new stereo, but you should know that by looking at the picture. Crutchfield's guide made it easy to match up the wires.
Pros: Heavy gauge Clear colors Wires pre-stripped Easy to read color chart
Cons:
plug worked perfectly
Pros: easy directions
Cons: none
had to buy a new harness because this one didn't work. very poor. epic fail on Crutchfield.
Pros:
Cons:
Crutchfield response on 8/19/2014 We forwarded this review to our Technical Support team for follow-up. Lifetime tech support comes with every Crutchfield purchase.
if it wasn't for Crutchfield in their wide variety of harnesses and other speaker accessories for cars, I would not have the awesome new cool new radio installed my car. I once went to another retailer to install and now since I have all the parts I can do it myself for cheaper and better than they did. This harness allows you to just simply hook up the wires for your aftermarket radio. it works well and that's what matters.
Pros: easy to install instructions are included and everything is color coded
Cons: if you can strip wires is going to be real hassle but that doesn't mean that you have a friend that can do for you.
I had installed a radio in my other vehicle from Crutchfield and the wiring harness was plug and play. I guess I expected the same with this one.
Pros: Easy to plug into factory wiring harness.
Cons: Having to butt splice every connection to the new radio. Be aware of the radio you order if you have a power antenna. The wiring harness came wired for power antenna, the radio did not.
Works, just didn't wind up needing as previous owner hard wired his radio
Pros:
Cons:
Excellent value and easy to wire with head unit harness.
Pros: Easy to wire with head unit harness and easy plug and play install in the dash.
Cons: N/A
I haven't installed an aftermarket stereo to 20 or more years. This made it easy and quick. No frustration.
Pros: Simple and easy to connect.
Cons: none
this harness fit very well and snug , all wires are in correct location .
Pros: good fit
Cons: none
Great product and fast on time delivery.
Pros: Easy to wire up to factory harness.
Cons: None
great fit and easy to follow instructions. Don't pay for someone $75 when you can install this yourself in about an hour. And Crutchfield was a great help with questions and concerns.
Pros: easy fit. didn't need any adjustments
Cons: none
Made the installation go much easier. Ran into one issue where the instructions were not clear, called tech support and got straightened out in a few minutes.
Pros: Makes wiring easy. Great Tech support if you run into problems
Cons: The instructions need to be updated to reflect later model cars
Simple install and great directions
Pros: Came free with purchase of stereo
Cons: None
Worked perfect!! Easy to read instructions. Very satisfied customer.
Pros: Easy to install
Cons: None
This is the first time I have used a harness adapter in one of my cars, and will be doing so from here on. This came with the receiver purchase, and with the included dash mount adapter, I was actually thrilled at how fast, easy, and clean the install was.
Pros: no aches, pains, cuts, scratches, or frustrations...
Cons: Doesn't wire itself?
very clear to understand, the color coding makes it pretty simple
Pros: it works
Cons: none
Had the stero installed in about 30 minutes with this harness.
Pros: Matched up perfectly and made the job quick and easy.
Cons: NONE
First time installing my own car stereo and all of the wires looked daunting, but instructions were spot on and didn't have any issues.
Pros: Easy to follow instructions...
Cons: None
Essential for a seamless install; also important if you ever want to sell you car and re-install the old stereo
Pros: matches connections perfectly; a few extra wires for things like power antennae, etc but these are clearly marked
Cons: none
Super easy to use
Pros: Perfect match
Cons: none
Wired right up to the JVC receiver bought with this. Make sure to compare the wiring diagram of the receiver you buy to the wiring diagram for this connector and you should do fine.
Pros:
Cons:
Worked great. Good product....
Pros:
Cons:
Harness fits perfectly into 04 Sonata and made wiring the new stereo a breeze.
Pros: It fits perfectly.
Cons: None
Great harness that was easy to use and worked perfectly
Pros: Instructions were great
Cons: none
It's a wiring harness; enough said.
Pros: Does what it was designed for.
Cons: None
the simplicity of following instructions with color coded wires makes this a no brainier for all first time do it yourself-ers.
Pros: Ease of use
Cons: none
Worked perfect for my 2003 Hyundai Tiburon. Was actually shocked at the fact the wiring was of better quality and thicker than the stuff that came with the head unit! The install went flawlessly and the product was well built and had no issues with it.
Pros: It does what it is supposed to
Cons: None - It was included free with my head unit
Perfect fit for swapping out the stock stereo in my Spectra 5. Made the installation a breeze, no need to strip and connect wires in the car. Just connect the wires from the harness to the one included in your new stereo and it plus right in from the car to the new stereo! Doesn't get any easier than that.
Pros: Makes stereo installation a breeze Connect wires and just plug new receiver into the car, no additional messing with wires needed
Cons: Could have used a wiring diagram, one from Crutchfield was a little vague - be sure to use the provided wiring diagram and the one for your new stereo
Just a little time to solder this to the receiver's pigtails made the in-car portion so much easier
Pros:
Cons:
Perfect
Pros: Worked very well!!!
Cons: None
makes installation sooooo much easier
Pros: seamless
Cons: none
Color code and instructions made it a breeze.
Pros: Easy
Cons: None
COLOR CODED WIRES MADE INSTALL A BREEZE
Pros: SIMPLE
Cons: NONE
With Crutchfield on your side, it's a piece of cake. That's how I feel when this guy was thrown in when I purchased the deck. Installation was pain free.
Pros:
Cons:
Great product. Made the wiring connections a lot easier. Once I got the factory stereo removed, I could see it would have been harder to connect the wires from the new stereo to the car. This harness allowed me to connect the wires from the new stereo to the harness in the comfort of my living room while watching television.
Pros: Made the wire connections a lot easier than it would have been
Cons:
It is always helpful to have the wiring harness adapter but the instructions on how to handle the illumination, dimming, power antennae leads could be better. I've been installing car radios for about 35 years on my personal vehicles and the details on how to handle these connections has always been confusing at best. I realize each car, model, etc. is different but maybe a flow chart on how to figure it out would be helpful.
Pros: Easier, cleaner installation
Cons: Needs better instructions
what can I say, a perfect match. just solder and shrink fit
Pros: clear markings
Cons: none
Just plug and play
Pros:
Cons:
I'm sure glad I had this. It made the install much easier. I soldered the wires but crimping would also work and either can be done well ahead of the actual install.
Pros: Easy
Cons:
makes installs a snap
Pros: easy to use
Cons:
What a great product
Pros: Very easy installation
Cons:
Crutchfield has it down! The instructions and ease of connecting my JVC receiver to my factory wiring was fast and easy. Thanks Crutchfield!
Pros: Easy!
Cons: None
The receiver harness worked perfectly to connect the Alpine receiver to my 2005 Hyundai Tucson. Instructions supplied with the harness were clearer than the diagram supplied with the receiver. Couldn't have done this without the Crutchfield harness.
Pros:
Cons:
This harness made it so easy to hook the radio up.
Pros: Price and ease of hook up.
Cons: None
Fit perfectly
Pros: Great diagram
Cons:
Exact match to factory harness and only took me 5 minutes to install. This was a plug and play with this harness
Pros: Exact fit and easy to install
Cons: None
No problems 2002 Hyundai Sonata
Pros:
Cons:
Work good as best buy but better price
Pros:
Cons:
What a life saver, took my time, matched all the wires and created a great wiring harness, just too easy. Thanks
Pros: Easy to create, very good instructions
Cons: None
Nothing feels better than hooking something up, and it works perfectly, the first time!
Pros: Easy to wire up on a bench - - saves a LOT of pain while working under the dash.
Cons:
Excellent. I could not have done it without this.
Pros:
Cons:
works great and easy to install
Pros:
Cons:
worked without a hitch!!! Just read through all the install instructions first...Critical It will save you time in the long run!!!
Pros: Fit right into the factory harness without a problem!
Cons: a little time consuming, but then worth it!!
Worked as intended. I soldered and shrink wrapped my connections. I have clear sound, no issues, and fit perfectly in my Accent. Remember to read and follow the instructions.
Pros: Worked perfectly as intended and came with instructions.
Cons: Took some time to get everything soldered and ready.
Easy to solder up. Solid product.
Pros: Decent instructions. Easy assembly.
Cons:
Very easy installation. Crimp to stereo harness, and plug right in. I have an 04 tiburon with infinity premium sound. This harness has turn on (remote) wire for factory amp. Made things very simple. Thanks!
Pros: Remote wire in harness Good instructions Color coded( and printed) wires
Cons: None!
My brother said this was the easiest wiring job he has had to do in years. He used the crimp connectors and everything went smoothly.
Pros: Easy to match up wires in no time at all. From a non techy female point of view, it looked so easy even I could have done it ;)
Cons: None
Fantastic. Having this made the installation so simple. Took care of attaching this inside before I ever even took the old radio out. What a wonderful plus to add to make life easier.
Pros: Instructions were clear.
Cons: None
This harness made my wiring job simple. Just a matter of hooking up like wires from the radio and the harness. All wires are clearly labeled and most are a direct color match. A little solder and heat shrink tubing and I was done in no time. If you aren't good with a soldering iron you can just as easily use crimp connectors to join the wires. Either way will work.
Pros: Includes excellent wiring diagram and clearly labeled wires. Keeps you from having to cut off the factory wiring plug.
Cons: None
this item at first i was worried about but all you do is connect the correct color and your fine...
Pros: made my system work with the new one
Cons: none
Makes wiring so simple even I could do it. I did call the support line on a couple of questions and they were able to answer them all. Their tech support is so helfpul and it's nice to be talking to someone in the US who actually understands the process and the products being used. Couldn't be happier with this experience.
Pros: It works!
Cons: None.
Sure beats hanging under the dash trying to match wires like we used to do before Crutchfield.
Pros:
Cons:
worked great. all colors matched up.
Pros: ease of use
Cons: none
Soldering the wires took longer then the installation of the unit. That being said my total install time was 1 hour.
Pros:
Cons:
Works great for what I needed it for.
Pros:
Cons:
Great documentation, installed with no problems
Pros:
Cons:
Fifteen wires soldered in the warmth of my kitchen. Then I went out and plugged it in and it worked. The sheet with the adapter tell you what the wires are on the Hyundai. the Sony manual tells you what the wires are on the receiver. Most of the wires match up color for color. Sony's ATT wire is light blue and I did not connect it and upon looking through my papers I do not remember why. Everything works including the receiver muting for a Phone call so I must have gotten it right.
Pros: Fifteen wires soldered in the warmth of my kitchen.
Cons: Crutchfield's, Sony's, and Metra's wiring diagram are similar but different.
THIS MADE INSTALLATION OF MY SYSTEM A BREEZE!!!
Pros:
Cons:
Did not match all wire colors from the radio. Had to buy a wire stripping tool to clean the ends on the harness. I would have thought they would have been pre-cut.
Pros: Nice to have.
Cons: Some difficulty matching wire for wire but in the end it was not impossible to figure out. All wires were not precut to allow for easy wiring. Had to buy a wire stripper kit extra to get the job done.
Easy to use, would do it again.
Pros: The colors matched, connecter fit, works great.
Cons:
Perfect!
Pros:
Cons:
Hyundai Receiver Wire Harness matched right up to my elantra put the radio in in about an hr
Pros:
Cons:
Couldn't be any easier with this....
Pros:
Cons:
This adapter worked perfectly with my new Sony radio. Hook the wires to the radio plug wires and you're good to go. It couldn't be easier.
Pros:
Cons:
This wiring harness worked just fine and made my Hyundai speakers work with my Pioneer deck. A must have for easy installs.
Pros:
Cons:
No seriously, what my title said. It's easy :)
Pros:
Cons:
Worked perfect for my 04 Kia Optima. The wire used for this harness was actually thicker than the ones used on my Sony headunit with 4x50W max drive power. It came with nice directions, quick smooth and easy install (wish my dates were like that!) Only thing I can think of is I wish the wire ends were pre-tinned for soldering - you all plan on soldering in your wire harness, right?
Pros:
Cons:
this harness kit worked perfectly for my 2005 hyundai elantra. it made my installation process very quick. not having to figure out what each wire does on the stock harness is awesome and saves time on installation.
Pros:
Cons:
Wow...this was great, very quick and easy to put in...now if i get a new stereo...i know it's a clip away...haha
Pros:
Cons:
Harness made wiring a replacement radio effortless. The harness fit perfectly and worked the first try. This harness saved much time in identifying and tracing wires and was well worth the price.
Pros:
Cons:
This is great and convenient, but don't forget to have wire crimps on hand. I didn't see any reminders on the website and thus forgot them completely. Thankfully I had some on hand from the last time I installed a radio.
Pros:
Cons:
Installed on a 2003 Hyundai Accent and a Kenwood stereo. Instructions were clear and easy to install.
Pros:
Cons:
This worked so nicely to replace old factory receiver. Just snap into old harness, connect matching color wires with those on new receiver and your in business. It was so easy and painless.
Pros:
Cons:
What a great harness!! Easy to follow, simple to hook up and they gave you lots of wire length to work with. The only improvement I would make is to include some crimp caps...much better than trying to tape everything. I had one question about the remote that came with the stereo and the customer service guy answered it right away...seems lots of folks have the same question and I think that's because the stereo wiring guide is confusing.
Pros:
Cons:
Would not wanted to have attempted to do the install without this harness.
Pros:
Cons:
This harness made installing my stereo a snap. The instructions state that the colors may not match up with the wire colors on the new stereo. They all matched up perfectly. I soldered them all up, wrapped the connections with shrink tubing and finished the installation. Could not be more straight forward.
Pros:
Cons:
Wiring harness instructions and matching to the colors on the radio were perfect.
Pros:
Cons:
I chose to solder the wires and it went very smoothly because the wire color coding standards made it easy to match up to the harness that came with the new radio. It would have been perfect if the harness had come with crimp connectors and perhaps a removal tool. A few wires in this harness had no matching wires in the radio harness, so with a straightened coat hanger and some careful persuasion I was able to coax the extra wires out of the connector so they wouldn't have to be taped up and just be dangling. The only other problem I had was they used an awful dark green for the green speaker wires compared to the kelly green on the other harness - I almost soldered the gray wire where the green with black needed to go because you had to look close.
Pros:
Cons:
This was included in my purchase of a Sony GT640 stereo from Crutchfield for my Hyundai Elantra. It was the right product. All of the wires matched up easily. I spliced and capped the wires at my kitchen table before snapping the harness into my cars harness during installation. I don't know much about wiring and this was my first car stereo installation. Crutchfield's tech phone support and the instructions they sent with the stereo and harness were very helpful.
Pros:
Cons:
Perfect fit for the '07 Tib....saves time, make installation easy.
Pros:
Cons:
This certainly simplified the connections to the vehicle. However there was one glitch. When I had finished, the installation, the receiver would power up, tune and read CD's, however there was no audio coming out of the speakers. A call to the Crutchfield support center, still on duty at 10 PM local time, soon resolved the problem as an additional connection required by my particular vehicle. Once this connection was made, the unit performed perfectly. I was impressed by how promptly the Crutchfield support person diagnosed my problem.
Pros:
Cons:
Perfect wiring. It look longer to go to the store to get crimp covers than to connect the corresponding wires to my Clarion receiver. I highy suggest getting the crimp covers ahead of time or from Crutchfield to save time. I needed 15 of them.
Pros:
Cons:
Couldn't ask for better. Had one small issue and Tech support answered it in like 5 min. they were great.
Pros:
Cons:
I was stumped but when I talked to a rep he asked if I had hooked up the amp wires. I had told him no, thats when he informed me that my 03 tiburon had an amp in it. Hooked it up and now my system is complete. The aftermarket stereo really makes all the speakers come alive. The harness is excellent.
Pros:
Cons:
Ok, I was a little nervous when I discovered I needed to splice wires to install this - It brought back bad memories of disasters when I did things like this from scratch in the past (I know electronics so I have a tendency to do things from scratch). I followed the instructions and it was a quick, simple project. Very easy. If you can use a wire stripper, twist those wire connectors together, and can see in color you should have no problem doing this. Very low skill level needed. Don't be threatened, just take one step at a time.
Pros:
Cons:
Pretty straight forward to figure out which wires to splice to which. Allows you to do all the detail work at a desk or workbench instead of on your head under the dash. Will cost you about $10 extra if you need to go out and buy a soldering iron and solder, but the proper connections are worth it. Once put together the harness was long enough to make the install easy.
Pros:
Cons:
Quick and easy. Haven't done much soldering so went and Youtube'd it and soldered the wires together. Presto, plugged it in and everything worked perfectly. Have a Sony X-plod stereo I pulled from my old car and everything fit just right.
Pros:
Cons:
This wire harness is very easy to use when installing an aftermarket receiver, because all of the colors of the harness matched the corresponding wire colors of the aftermarket receiver. I guess what I am trying to say is that any child kindergarten or higher would have no trouble wiring this to their aftermarket receiver. As always, I would recommend that all wire connections be either soldered, or use the proper connectors. Avoid electrical tape to ensure a long-lasting installation. Equally as important, make sure you double check all of your work before turning the ignition on.
Pros:
Cons:
I had ordered this, thinking it would allow me to connect my new radio to my car. The site asked me what car I had, what radio I wanted, and what sort of installation I needed. Foolishly, I went ahead and ordered the radio and this recommended harness, assuming it would do what it should have, which is to connect my new radio with my car. It doesn't. I have to splice wires together. This means I either have to solder or "crimp," which will require me to buy a soldering iron or crimper that I will use only once in my life and then have to throw away. Either of these is an additional, unnecessary expense that I had never anticipated. Unfortunately the "advisor" I talked to, once I realized this, was unable to get me the part I actually needed -- one that will actually create a connection without splicing, soldering or crimping. Now I'm stuck with a radio that I cannot install and a wiring harness that doesn't do what it's supposed to.
Pros:
Cons:
I've never installed a radio before, and I found it really easy to make all of the connections on this harness. The instructions were clear, and it took me about 30 minutes to do it.
Pros:
Cons:
Perfect fit for 2003 Hyundai Elantra. Easy to match colored wires from this harness to the "Jensen HD5212" receiver wires. Just had to make about 12-14 wire connections, tape off/cap the ones I didn't need and the adapter clicked right into place.
Pros:
Cons:
This was the first time I have ever installed a receiver myself and it went much better than expected. There could be better instructions provided for the wiring harness but overall a quick call to product support cleared up my questions. Seems there are always some extra wires and you can just tape them back. Can't ask for an easier install though in a 2005 Sonata.
Pros:
Cons:
Worked great for attaching my new radio to my new Elantra! I soldered and heat shrinked the connections for optimal sound. Make sure to follow proper soldering procedure if you use this method. Details on the Crutchfield site.
Pros:
Cons:
Worked great for connecting my Elantra to the new headunit I bought. Directions were clear and it was easy to use. A great choice if you need a wire harness for a Hyundai.
Pros:
Cons:
Color coded to match stereo harness, all functions work properly after hookup.
Pros:
Cons:
Wiring Harness: This wiring harness prevents 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 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 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 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.
