You can get a chinese radio for $30 but if you plan to keep using your car for some time it would be better to go up one notch and put something like the Pioneer FH-X720BT, i know CDs are in extinction but for a little price difference you still have the option.
You need to get the mounting kit, and the wiring harness. Installing it is not that hard, if you can splice some wires you're set, the wires in the radio harness and in the adapter are color coded so you just need to match them.

$5 would have saved you a massive amount of headache and potentially money. Did you leave enough length on the harness to reconnect it? If you still have it?

Chances are quite high you blew fuses when cut the factory harness. It’s also quite possible you aren’t on the right wire or your connections aren’t as good as you think. Having chopped the factory harness you may be looking at more in labor as far as correcting your issue goes because now who ever will be working on it isn’t just doing a normal install they will be doing a hardwired install.

Hey! If you have a cassette player, you're gonna need an adapter which can be found here if not you dont need this! Make sure the measurements of the radio match up, it should fit most single/double din radios.


After that make sure to buy a wiring harness


And then get your radio!



Also this would help a bunch, be sure you have a 8mm socket ready.

What you want to look for is a single din head unit.

Now depending on what else was ripped out of the car you may need a new wiring harness

And a radio antenna adapter... I couldn't find this alone on Amazon. Here's a bundle with the wiring harness, antenna adapter and dash kit

Hope this helped out.. any single din head unit will work I just took the first one I saw to show you.

Um...that's exactly what I'm doing but you still need to connect the stereo harness with the adaptor harness since stereos have different input configurations.

This is what I have: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002BF09S/ref=psdc_10981131_t1_B0007KK2G0

Everyone's going to have a different opinion on what to buy, but I'll take a stab...

Is this the harness adapter you're referring to? Sorry I'm new to all of this (I paid bestbuy to have all of my stuff put in originally) so I have a couple more questions.

Will that mini amplifier power all 4 speakers? I only see a L and R so my assumption is that it'll only work for 2 speakers. Also, how do I power the amp? Is that what the remaining wires coming out of the adapter that aren't for the speakers are for? Lastly, is attaching the wires to the amp as easy as stripping the wire and twisting it around the pins? Thank you again for your help.

u/Xavdidtheshadow · 1 pointr/CarAV

Will I need to do the wiring myself? I was under the impression the harness would connect the systems without anything like that.

u/In_Dying_Arms · 1 pointr/CarAV

Kit

Harness

Steering wheel controls, if you want it.

2 screws below radio, and one behind the hazard (whole piece between vents comes out) then the whole panel comes off.

u/SonOfShem · 1 pointr/CarAV

I'm really only looking for the Bluetooth/AUX connections. Will this work for that? Or is there a better solution?

A wiring harnesss like this? I didn't realize you had to wire each connection up to an after market stereo. Meh, shouldn't be that bad.

Am I better off just getting something like this?
