Wiring with a Wiring Adapter

This is the easiest wiring method, because it replaces your existing radio. You will have to buy a wire
harness adapter from your dealer, a car stereo installation shop or electronics store. If you use a wiring
adapter, you can connect all wires to the radio before you even start to take your old radio out.

Connect Wires

Splice, crimp or solder the wires from the
Jensen connector to the wiring adapter. Match
the wires according to the chart (below) and
the wiring adapter instructions.

You can make all
these connections
