Do you know the polarity for the front speakers for a 2019 Subaru Impreza base model?
Excellent Install!! Very impressed.
Thank you, much appreciate. Very helpful video.
im confused where did you route those two blue wires? it looks like you put the blue with the blue and white wires together just making sure. I also have a aftermarket amp
Hey friend. I got the Metra 70-8112 harness and mine does not have the brown and orange wires like yours has. Did you have to pin those ones in yourself? Thank you
Hey, I'm wanting to do an aftermarket amp in my sc300, I have the 12disc cd changer and ik the amp is under it, would it be plug and play to install a new amp or would it require a lot of work?
Any idea what size screws are holding the trim in place?
Very helpful. Thank you
Were you able to make the oem power antenna work? How?
excellent video
Dear @provobeastaudio , please tell why after installing this kit, front and rear speakers work but my original Nakamichi subwoofer not working. Maybe you know what I have to wire additionally to turn it on? Do you know which original connector pins/cables go to subwoofer signal?
Hmm the metra Amazon plug you linked below does not come with orange leads. Why is that?
I have this exact car, same color interior and put the same radio in and you make it look so easy😊 now show us how to replace the LCD read out in the climate control unit with the lightbulbs. I’ve done that it’s not easy. Maybe you have an easier way to do it.
They should make an aftermarket part so you could remove the ashtray and have a smart phone compartment 🧐. Great video!

Do they make a radio with climate controls on it for this car?
The Metra harness is different now. There’s no yellow, no orange, no brown. And my speakers are just making buzzing sounds. I’m so confused cause I follows this exactly as you did it
what sc are you working on? Mine is 1999 sc400. on the back of the stock radio there are 4 connectors. and I see is that the male connector from the Metra 70-8112 does not fit to any of them. Can you help.

Thanks for the instructions. Got everything working. Only problem is I am getting a noise if the engine is on and noise increases with acceleration. Planing to use ground loop isolator. Which wires do I need to connect?

Sure, well it depends on your trim and parts used. If you have the factory amp (like we did) and using the harness adapter with the low-level RCA connections, then this ground loop isolator may help (two orders needed unless you buy a 4 channel): amzn.to/3KfDIYm

Hi we have the Japanese import 1991 soarer . With the v8. It has this stupid stereo that has the heater stuff in it. If we get rid of the stereo and put one in like u have done we would also have to buy the lexus heater unit like you have which is easy to buy. Would you know if it would be hard to wire the heater unit

I have the 6 cd changer in the trunk and used the harness of the plug. besides the purple grey and white wires for the speakers i didnt use the blue/white wire which is for the amp and im using a sony unit. do you have an idea of why it is not working? should i try the other harness or something else?

No, sounds like you failed to hook up the blue / white amp trigger wire. Your factory amp isn't turning on and consequently have no sound. Hook up that wire in the harness adapter to your new radio's amp or accessory wire, and it should turn on the factory amp.

@@ProvoBeastAudio I do have the 6 disc changer in the trunk but was always uncertain if mine was the amplified system because looking at the factory head units, some are Nakamichi, which as I understand are amplified. My head unit doesn’t display the Nakamichi logo but my vehicle does have the 6 disc changer so some confusion there. Wondering where I would look, if the factory amplifier was mounted in a specific location to determine, assuming it wasn’t built into the head unit.

There in an amp mounted directly under the cd changer. The cd changer implies your car is amplified. It's most likely a pioneer amp as the nakamichi systems had it advertised on the center console

Use a 9v battery and see which way the factory speaker pops. If it pops outwards, whatever wire is in the positive side of the battery will be your positive wire
