I'm shopping for an aftermarket head unit. Found a nice Alpine unit too. Is installing just plug n play or is there crimping, splicing involved?

 

Usually there is crimping and splicing if you can't find a adapter.

 

find and adapter, and its simple, other than that, its not..lol

 

doing a deck in our cars is easy easy! if you cant figure out...

 

a monkey could do it...

 

unless you have the ssl package its easy....if you do you have to get the wiring adapter for the amp

 

Ive been installing hu for a long time. I can guarantee you that the evo is the easiest i have ever done. Buy yourself the harness.....

 

I wired up my metra harness while watching tv...then I installed it in about 10 min max

 

Question:
I've installed a few stereo's and mine has an Aftermarket one (bought it that way)....now.....i want to put the OEM back in.Do I need the factory Wiring harness or can I use the one thats on the radio now?

 

havent you ever done any fords? They are by far easier, well depending on models, so for peoples sake (single din not "premium premium") are the easiest

but yes, i can rip apart that dash and put it back together like no other!

 

regular or infinity system?

 

MrFairlady:
take it apart and look at the harness....

if you see a mitsubishi plug, detatch it from the aftermarket one and plug it into the deck.

if whomever chopped your harness hardwire a mitsu one back in there


try not to hijack, not a lot of people like that

03 evos didnt have the ssl

 

Well...this Thread was not going anywhere...might as well get input on a similar Thread to what I'm looking for too ya know.
I mean,..I can always do another meaningless Thread?

Thanks though

I don't think anyones feelings were hurt

 

its not hijacking but the first question was answered, so there was no need to start another thread since exp. people were already looking at this one... now if it was totally o.t. then it would be hijacking..

 

Thank you sir.
My ? = not

oh well....its no biggie sorry If it was borderline hijacking but it stemmed from the same topic,.I'm sorry.

Thats what is crazy about this board compared to the others I'm on....There are SO MANY Newb bull$hit Threads,...so I can see where I could've been pegged as a 16 yr old w/ no license better yet a car.
*No need for more threads.

any who.....so I'll have to buy a new wiring harness obviously if its not on there?
That answers my Question


ps:I'm 27 and not new to "Fourms" nor rules of every forum (all mostly the same).Granted it says Newb by my name here....but I will assure you all that:
honda-tech,NASIOC,my350Z.com,clubrsx,imprezawrxsti.com I know how it works.

Thanks guys & Gals!
