So nice to be able to talk to a real person who guides you and makes sure you are getting exactly what you need. The advisor that helped me, Freya, even checked on my stereo (not from Crutchfield) to make sure of installation details, and sent me pdfs of instructions. Very helpful! Made installation of my new stereo super simple. Thanks!

Just what I needed
Bryan from Wellington, CO on 10/10/2022
2002 Subaru Outback
Ordered a wiring harness for a 2002 Subaru Outback. Works perfect with super clear instructions even on that old of a car. I also ordered the wiring tool and wire nuts that popped up. I usually don't do that but for only $7 and I didn't have to drive to the store and find it and its something i rarely use that worked out great also.

This came in handy even though I wasn't able to use it because the previous owner of my vehicle had clipped all but 2 of the wires from the harness. But luckily they had left the harness And it really came in handy to help me match up the correct wires. Otherwise it would have plugged right in and would have made for a very fast installation.

Fits as advertised
Nathan from VALENCIA, CA on 12/2/2020
2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS
It fit my 2002 Subaru Impreza just fine, and made connecting my system easy because I could pre-wire almost everything ahead of time. I'd highly recommend using a soldering iron and heat shrink tubing for the best connections, and map out any extra wires you may need to add to the harness (subwoofer power, backup light circuit, emergency brake switch, etc.). The more wiring you can do before climbing around inside the car, the happier you'll be.
Pros: Fits my car as advertised. Good quality wiring.
Cons:

A great timesaver
zbikes from Green Bay, WI on 12/10/2018
2003 Subaru Baja
A little bit of solder, some heat shrink tube and presto you have a complete plug and play installation. Sure beats the old days of cutting off the stock stereo's connector and soldering a new one on in the car.
Pros: Makes life easier.
Cons: none

Easy as pie
Dennis from Fallon, NV on 11/26/2018
2004 Subaru Legacy
This adapter is an excellent way to replace factory equipment but what I want to praise are the Crutchfield instructions that come with it. They told me, with photos, which pieces of trim to remove in order, and it was a breeze. After installing my new unit I discovered I had speaker problems. The instructions were a life-saver. Step-by-step instructions, again with photos of what appeared to be my car, showed me how to remove the door panels and speakers. The adapter costs $13. I would have paid more than that for the instructions alone.
Pros: Using an adapter is, obviously, the only way to go Instructions, instructions, instructions
Cons: None known

AudioFan from CA on 5/11/2018

Made installation a lot easier! I used butt crimp connectors to connect the wires from this harness to my Sony radio's wires, then simply plugged this harness to the factory harness. The wires' colors matched perfectly with the Sony wires' colors, making everything easier. The best part-it is free! Thanks Crutchfield!
Pros: Perfect and free!
Cons: None!

So simple even I can do it!
Ben from Fort Collins, CO on 8/24/2017
1996 Subaru Legacy
Crazy simple to use and install. Even I, who has minuscule electrical experience/knowledge, was able to use this in my stereo installation and I didn't even shock myself once! My only qualm (and it's one that is partially my fault and possibly partially the industries fault) is I had difficulty recognizing the power cable because the one on my head unit was more of a deep red while the corresponding one on this harness was a distinctly different color, basically pink. Therefore I (who honestly didn't read the instructional harness diagram too closely) didn't connect the power cables together at first and had to pull the unit back out and try again. But it was a good lesson learned.
Pros: Simple. Straightforward. Only took me a second try because I didn't read the instructions closely enough the first time.
Cons: Different color on the power cable (but it could be different brands doing their own thing) so I didn't catch those two at first.

Good but missing the dimmer wire
Crutchfield customer from Hilliard, OH on 2/5/2017
2008 Subaru Legacy
The harness has a high wire count and each wire labeled which is great. The back of the plastic bag it comes in has the legend for each wire which is a nice touch too. My only issue is that the harness did not come with a dimmer wire: pin 14. The only reason it gets three stars is because of the missing wire.
Pros: Labels on the wires Legend of the wires on the bag high wire count per wire
Cons: Missing dimmer wire

Sean from Bentonville, AR on 10/12/2016
This product is amazing! I loved how the color codes matched my head unit color codes! It was a easy install. My only wish is that there was information on the car's illumination system because, I want my head unit to dim with the car system but the head unit has a dimmer wire and that is not cross compatible with most head units. They are the same color and it could cause some confusion. all the information about the installation of the head unit was incredibly easy to understand and I got my head unit installed in about an hour. Great product! I always purchase from crutch field! I have for all 3 of my cars now!
Pros: Instructions make installation easy. There are pictures; however, you will need a flashlight. It's mostly plug and play.
Cons: There is a lack of information on dimmer and illumination wires. It's hard to make it look like a factory job.
