Description Crutchfield Hands-on Research Accessories
 

Crutchfield custom wiring harnesses will save you many steps when installing an aftermarket stereo in your car. Simply splice the colour-coded wires on your Crutchfield harness to the wires from your aftermarket stereo — and do it in the comfort of your home without having to struggle with splicing wires behind your dash.

Next, plug the Crutchfield harness into the harness that you removed from your factory radio. Check to make sure that everything's working properly, then finish installing your new stereo.

Since you didn't have to cut off your car's original radio connector, it's easier to put the factory radio back in when you sell your vehicle or return it at the end of the lease. Just plug the factory radio back in and keep the aftermarket stereo. Best of all, the harness is free with most of the stereos Crutchfield offers. Warranty: 30 days.

Pay Attention Porsche Owners April-15-12
Reviewer: QpQ from Northern Virgnia  
Like a few other folks have mentioned, the Yellow and Red power wires are switched for late 90s and early 2000s Porsches (986s and 987s).  Very annoying.  However, there was actually a note in the bottom of the wiring guide that was included that mentioned this.  However, I of course didn't notice it until everything was soldered and installed.  Took it out and re-did it when I realized the mistake.  Annoying but functioning now.  

The main problem I had with this again seems to be a problem for many people.  Why are the rear speaker wires missing??  Crazy.  I ripped some wires out of an old harness I was throwing out and inserted them into the right places on this unit and it worked just fine.    

In the end, everything is working fine.  However, it should have been much easier than this.  This thing is overpriced at $25 for the problems it has.


 
Have to modify for 2001 Audi A6 April-08-12
Reviewer: Kevin from Omaha, NE  
My car has a factory amp for the rear speakers and have found out that if you use the RCA cables in this kit the new stereo will make a popping noise when switching between certain opitons like FM, CD, etc.  Cut off the rear RCA and plug into new stereo's rear speaker hookups to eliminate this.


 
Great harness if you know how to hook the power wi April-03-12
Reviewer: Guyle from michigan  
Great harness. One thing to note is in my 2003 Audi a4 the red wire did not serve a purpose in a harness. You must run the red wire from your head unit to the fuse box or some other power source. I used fuse 37(windshield wiper fuse)

Good easy to use harness


 
Good, but 1 wire wrong February-15-12
Reviewer: Close.... from Lexington, KY  
I've used this brand of harnesses several times, and they are always pretty solid.  In this case, the switched power and battery power were backwards for my 2001 Porsche 911.  I had to use a meter to figure out the right ones.
