I purchased a kenwood double din last years model and i got it today but ive been doing research all day trying to find the correct radio harness i have a 2002 gs300 ive found about 3 different harnesses and cant figure out which one so im asking for the clubs help! Im so anxious to put it on but i cant without the right harness. I want tokeep the factory sub with the new double din any help is appreciated

 

Im in the same boat. So far from researching in this forum, it seems like any toyota/scion harness fits but i dont know if the subwoofer will be functional.

Eloyc02gs3- are you doing the double din install by yourself? I am trying to do mine as well, just got the Pioneer AVH-P3200BT double din

 

yeah I am im doing the install my self ive still been doing research and some websites say certain harness will fit and other websites say it wont im leaning towards the Metra 71-8113 harness right now though you can type thay in into google n see what u think

3 harness for 3 different Audio options (pioneer/nak/ML).. Use the one for your car SIMPLE AS THAT.

Have fun blowing your speakers, if you think ur gonna add a plug and play harness at back of ur HU and call it a day. Search again my friend ALL THE INFO IS HERE

When in doubt have a professional do it, Messing with wires without properly knowing their function is a No No..

 

tat boat sailed a long time ago guy sbut i too was confused about harnesses and in shorter terms there is no specific plug and play kit for the gs300 due to the fact that ur stock amp easiest way to do it is make ur own harness like i did connect ur highs to ur new head unit and get a aftermarket amp and sub and call it a day u wont regret it also if u guys live near la i can help

 

what if i dont want to hook up an aftermarket sub and amp do i have to make my own harness? i wanted to just keep factory sub and amp and not add aftermarket ones. and i live in ventura county about 45 from la dont know if ur familiar with that county

 

ive looked around on how to connect a stock amp to aftermarket head unit and frankly everywhere and everyone has said there is no way to due it thats why ive connected my speakers directly to my head unit viA a harness i made that connects to my oem amp plug where speakers are wired to and i just used a alpine amp 650w and i replaced my stock sup with a 10" alpine type r sub sounds great u can hear deep bass outside

 

the harness i made was just for the (highs) meaning door speakers. this harness has to be long enought to reach from ur oem amp wich is located behind ur glove box near passenger fuse box to behind your new head unit this harness will be needed no matter sub or no sub

 

I ordered a harness from amazon 71-8113 cuz thats as close to a harness that I got so they way u wired it I wnt be needing that harness?? so from the aftermarket HUs harness u wired it straight to the amps harness? do u have pics n or detailed way that u did it

Why's everyones factory amp behind glove box? I had the nakamichi maybe thats why my factory amp was in the trunk ? I had to run wires all the way to the head unit. Was a bit of a PITA.

 

i think most people have the pioneer amp and head unit

 

Advil4u- You have PM, thanks!!!
