2001 Lincoln Continental

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

This kit had wires in locations that didn't connect to anything. I realize these are designed to fit many cars but instructions on moving pins or extra pins to add for vehicle specific needs would have been nice. I ended up buying an extra cheap Ford harness for another vehicle to give me extra wires for my steering wheel control module. Also on my 2001 Lincoln Continental there was no 12V illumination signal at the radio. The illumination wire went to an empty pin location on the factory harness. I was able to locate a headlight switched 12V wire above the radio going to the clock/button cluster. Using a t-splice I was able to wire it into the illumination on the radio.

Perfect Match

Crutchfield customer from Sycamore, IL on 5/26/2020

2001 Ford Mustang

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Color coded wires were a perfect match, easy harness to use and it mated with my Mustang GT perfectly. The only thing that would have been helpful would have been a note that for a head unit with only one subwoofer output (Sony XAV-AX1000), you need to get an RCA y-splitter and attached both the red and white RCA plugs of the subwoofer harness to that. Otherwise a perfect and easy install.

Pros: Almost everything you need

Cons: Instructions on subwoofer harness could be slightly improved.

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Very easy to install, follow the instructions and when done you dont get the annoying pooping sound when the stereo turns on. One thing to add, if you are wiring in an aftermarket amp and subwoofers, DO NOT connect to blue/white from amp to this harness, connect it directly to the blue/white on the aftermarket stereo. This harness is strictly for OEM amps only and should be bypassed when using an addition amp with subwoofer.

Pros: No popping sound out of speakers when aftermarket radio turns on. Easy to connect to aftermarket radio.

Cons: None

Verified employee review (What's this?)

This harness was suggested as part of the install kit from Crutchfield from "outfit my ride" option. It was spot on! I was able to hook up my new JVC DDIN head unit retaining the OEM Mach 1 sound system in my 2001 Mustang GT. After hooking up this harness to the new head unit harness, it was "plug and play" after that. I later found out that this harness is the most sought after unit for the correct wiring of an aftermarket head unit into the OEM system of my year car. Big thanks to the Crutchfield team for having the correct pieces figured out.

Pros: Perfect fit for my application. Installation was seamless.......

Cons: None

Purchased this kit as told by Crutchfield its the one for my car and my new Sony double DIN system. The colour wires from my new system dont match the wires from my Mustang Cobras harness. Also the plug with 2 wires (blue/grey) I am not sure what that is for? Can you advise? I am going to get an expert to install as I cant work out the wires. Dont want to blow up my new unit and the amps etc.... Besides that good product

Pros: Cheap

Verified employee review (What's this?)

When you finally get the old head unit out you think the hard part is done. Until you see that there are 3 connectors worth of wires that have to go into 1. That's because I was replacing my factory installed MACH1000 with a new Kenwood. Nearly 3 dozen wires in all. The Metra 70-5701 Receiver Wiring Harness made that job easy with accurate wiring information and all of the adapters needed. When I did end up with a couple unidentified wires, a Crutchfield tech had the answers at his finger tips.

Pros: Ease of use and accuracy of information

Cons: Wiring information printing was on the bag and small

Used to install Alpine head unit with subwoofer out into an Explorer Limited with the Mach audio system. Factory amp & subwoofer worked perfectly. No turn-on thump. All fit nicely, and wire colors matched the Alpine output.

Pros: Perfect fit with factory Mach audio system, including subwoofer. Very easy install.

Cons: none, nada, zilch.

I bought this for a 2003 Mustang with the Mach stereo and replaced with a JVC unit. The wiring was ok , the instructions were not as detailed as I would have thought and had to call Crutchfield for help on some of the wiring which if the instructions were clear for my vehicle I wouldn't had called them, I have installed several radios and this is the 1st I have had an issue with the harness.

Pros: Quality connectors

-1 star for the Amp Turn-On/Sub Harness plastic connector was too tight. I couldn't get it to snap in. I broke the release tab off. I used channel locks (use at your own risk) to get some extra pressure in the connector to get it to seat as far as it would go. I still didn't get it to snap in but it seemed pretty tight. *Everything else was great. I tried chat for some advice and they gave me the installers phone number which I used 3 times. It was my first car stereo install. Everything sounds great.

Pros: Customer service was great. Wire harness matched up good. My first time installing a car stereo and Crutchfield got me through it.

Cons: Amp Turn-On/Sub Harness plastic connector was too tight.

I decided to follow what the other reviewers were saying, and I'm glad I did. This harness fit my 2001 Mustang GT with the Mach 460 audio system. No problems at all. Tie ALL the black grounds together, and hook the two blue wires for the rear amps to your head unit's remote wire. This was my first Crutchfield purchase and I'm happy.

Finally after trying other manufactured wiring harness's I found one that works. Everyone else selling a 2002 Mustang harness had the wrong size plug for the amp connection. It looked close but the pins would not line up. I admit I was skeptical about this fitting but others said it would. Worked great!

Pros: Finally found the right connector that works with the Mach 460 amps in my 2002 Mustang GT.

Cons: Not a thing

There isn't much to say about these really. They work as they say they do. What makes this special though, is that it comes with every piece you need to wire up your stereo properly. It has the main wire harness for your speaker connections and things like that, antenna harness so your antenna has proper power, and the amplifier harness in case you have a factory amp. I didn't need the amp harness, but I did need the antenna one. If I had went to autozone, I would have only gotten the main one and my antenna wouldn't be getting the power it needs, since it is an in glass antenna. Thanks for having the proper parts crutchfield!

Pros: It works It has every harness for the car

Excellent Harness!

PC from Connecticut on 5/16/2012

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

The folks at Crutchfield did their homework well with this wiring harness. Crutchfield was the only vendor that had all 3 connectors in a single package/purchase AND with documentation. I compared the actual wiring of this Crutchfield harness to an official Ford electrical manual - Crutchfield got it right!!! Car electrical is not for the faint-of-heart so I can't stress how important it is for a vendor to get it right to save the customer from plugging in a $700 head-unit into faulty/incomplete/hacked-up wiring harness. Nice job Crutchfield!

Pros: The immense benefit of not hacking or splicing into the car electrical system. Can put the stock radio back in in 5 mins with no evidence that an after market head unit was ever installed.

Cons: Yes, that I wasted my time believing that vendors (other than Crutchfield) who should know what they are doing with car electrical connectors for aftermarket head-units, don't.

Not exactly intuitive... but easy enough

JamesR from College Park, MD on 8/5/2011

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

All the wires necessary are there, but if you are replacing a bottom line stock stereo it's not exactly intuitive where they all go. Yes, there is a diagram that is helpful, but for a stock unit you are not using most of the wires. End of the day I would get it again, and do it again. Had the whole stereo and speakers replaced 90 min. after the package arrived from Crutchfield. Great job guys!
