Here is my situation, I have a 1995 4door explorer XLT wwith JBL sub and amp in rear panel, no antenna wire in factory head unit.
I have read through all the posts about the 1995 JBL system and have come to the conclusion that i may need Metra Harness 70-5601.
Here is my issue I have already dropped $35 on Metra Harness 70-5603 b/c thats what i thought I needed, I cannot return it because I have stripped some of the wires already.
Here is what I am trying to do >>>>
THis is the harness i have now Metra 70-5603. The power harness (wide gray one) works fine, i have hooked my radio up and tested it. Now the Audio harness has 4 RCA's at the end that connect to a set of 8 wires (purple/blk, green/blk, gray/blk, white/blk) and then a ground wire.
This is the factory harness that connected into my factory radio, The green harness from the metra kit looks like it fits it but it doesnt and the pins are in different places. Their are 8 wires connected to this (blue/pink, black, brown, green/blk, white/pink, brown/green, blue/white, gray)
My question is, if I find out what the 8 wires in the factory harness are to can I wire the metra harness wires into those and have my speaker, sub, and amp work properly? I am not so concerned with the antenna as I do not listen the am/fm radio to often.
Other question, with metra kit 70-5601, what all has to be done as far as running wires?(other than antenna) b/c looking at the picture of the kit it looks like a big bundle of wire is included. Also does the harness for sound in this kit fit exaclty with the factory harness without further splicing?
Thanks for any help given
