Using an Adapter Harness

If you are replacing an existing stereo, or if your vehicle has been factory-wired
for autosound components, you can use an adapter harness to connect the power
and speakers. RadioShack stores sell adapter harnesses for most vehicles.

Follow the directions that come with the adapter harness to temporarily connect the
power and speakers.

After you connect the adapter harness to your vehicle, you can skip to “Testing the
Connections” on Page 11.
