stereo wiring

[Nuve]

just a quick question really .. as u know i'm currently "doing up" the supra my late step father past down to me .. was removing the stereo 2day to find out why it wasnt workin and found this lovely mess staring right back at me

was just wondering how easy it is to find a harness for the original stereo

cheers

why not just get a cheap aftermarket stereo and hardwire it in?

You should be able to purchase the in-car portion of the harness from a junkyard or local owner scrapping their car. If I still had a parts car I would just give it to you.

I suggest posting an ad in the "Parts Wanted" classified section and seeing if someone's got one they'd like to part with.

Autozone sells the harness you need. I bought one back in the day for my 240sx when the previous owner hacked teh harness up to hell.

If my memory serves me correctly, it was like $12bux.


BTW: I have a stock radio for sale out of a 89

he lives in newcastle - England?? So Autozone is out of the picture. You should be able to find it in a junkyard..maybe...
I have a parts car and It has the plugs still. I will cut it and save it incase you can't find any locally, hit me up. free + you pay shipping.

Oh didn't realize he was in England. lol


I forget that this is an international forum.

That seems like something I heard that you could still be able to get from the stealership... Don't the new Scion's use the same connection?

The plug you need is avaliable in any NON AMPLIFIED Toyota from 87 to current models. ^^^ Yes, Sky-ons use the same plug.

You could also get it from Metra, the part number is 71-1761

I have a Tacoma head unit in my supra and it hooks right up. So from that I would guess the harness is the same? I think its 1986-present use the same connector for most if not all Toyota models.

Okay here is the stock wiring . PM me your address and I will check for shipping cost on Monday/Tuesday and will let you know how muc it is. I don't think it will be much.

Here is the plugs out of an '88 supra.

scosche makes automotive stereo repair harnesses for just such an occasion. they are usually $12 to $15 shipped. check online. i beleive the stock toyota replacement harness is PN TA02R. ive bought a few of them before. the proper harness that will allow constructing an adapter harness between the factory radio plugs to your head unit should be the same part number without the "R" suffix. so order both harnesses if you are installing an aftermarket unit.

ive bought them on Ebay as well as electrogalaxy.com but i havent seen them on there lately.
