Hello,

I just got a Premier head unit, a Indash Monitor from Visonik and a dvd/mp3/wma/cdr player. I also bought a Toyota wiring harness.

I take everything out. and WHAM it hits me ... WTF are all these harnesses for? I count about 4. The toyota harness came with only two.

Does any one have the color codes and/or know what goes to what?

Or does anyone know if they sell the right harness's?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The SC's have factory amps in the rear. You need to run line-level (rca outputs) to these inputs to make it function with the stock speakers/amps.

However, you may have problems matching the levels up. The factory headunit puts out a lower than normal signal.

So...with that said... you will need a few more things to get the job done. http://209.125.175.29/lexusstereo.html that will help a ton.

You may need new amps and speakers as well.

Good Luck.

Thanks Bro

This is exactly what I was looking for. I had another one from carstereohelp and it was different. Again Thanks.

i had the same problem when i put my Alpine IVA in my car. i didn't use the rca outputs to run my speakers. just tapped into the wires from the factory amp, so we used the exisiting factory wires to receive signals. i actually changed my harness to a non-lexus one so that i can change head units like any other car without having to worry about my cutting wires.

Im going to try to attempt this tomorrow. Thanks for the help guys.

Save yourself the headache(now and later) and jus re-wire the whole system.

"Save yourself the headache(now and later) and jus re-wire the whole system."

I agree with Emerald. If you change out the headunit, you might as well run two pair of wires into the doors from the dash. The SC is by far the easiest car to pull wires into the doors because of the double hinge system that leaves a huge gap. Then you can ditch the stock amps and get what you paid for.

well I figured out most of it. Everything turns on. However my power antenna doesnt turn on anymore. Anyone have any clue which wires they are or anything that has to do with the wires? I tried using that chart thing but had no clue.
