Metra 70-1721 Wiring Harness Fits Select 1998-2013 Acura/Suzuki/Honda Vehicles

This part worked perfectly. We were installing an aftermarket stereo and didn't want to cut and splice the stock wiring harness. Plus it was challenging to figure out what colored wire connected to the new wiring harness. This cable resolved both issues. The color coding matched perfectly with the new stereo making splicing wires easy. Ultra quick shipping as well. High quality and great value.

I recently used this wiring harness to install a JVC KW-XR810 head unit in my 2002 Acura TL S-Type. The wiring harness worked well and was easy to use. It was nice that all of the wires came pre-cut and ready to strip. The packaging also had a wiring guide on the back that explained what each wire's purpose was. This was helpful because all I had to do was match up the corresponding wires from the new head unit harness to the Metra harness. To be clear, you technically do not need to purchase this harness. This harness wires to the wiring harness for your aftermarket head unit and then plugs into your car's wiring harness. The benefits of this wiring harness are that you do not need to cut into your factory wiring and that you can do all of your wiring while you are seated comfortably at a table inside your house and then just connect the plugs in the car. So, while you don't need this to do the job, it is definitely worth the money for the convenience and for the reduced chance of failure. One thing I must point out is that this device is only wired to support 4 speakers (front L & R, rear L & R) so if your car has a factory subwoofer (i.e. a fifth speaker), this wiring harness will not support it. Also, I've looked around and there is not an aftermarket wiring harness out there that does support the subwoofer. Rather, what you have to do is run a RCA out of your new head unit and splice it into the subwoofer line for your car. There are plenty of "how-to's" floating around on the web. I was able to find one for my Acura TL and I have the factory subwoofer working now. Overall, I would recommend this. It works perfectly and is great for the price. -Cheers!

Works as it should.

This worked perfectly for the 2nd Gen Honda CR-V and mated to the Kenwood Excelon 696s Wiring harness does require assembly, and if you have auto wire strippers, USE them. Shrink tubing is what i used. I feel its better than butt-connectors. Every cable in the instructions they email to you matched up well to the OEM harness and I have not had any issues yet in over many years. Pros: It worked, lol it was kinda fun wiring everything, Perfect fit Instructions very complete and straightforward Cons: No crimp connectors included - it's okay. now I can do it with ease

I purchased this wiring harness to install a replacement car stereo into of friend's 2000 Honda Civic sedan. The Metra comes in plastic bag with the insulation ends of each wire already pre-cut so you can slide the tips right off and be ready to make your connections. Wire gauge is quite good and the internal wiring is copper. There's a diagram on the bag that shows the Color correlation to function and that was very clear. The only confusion during the process was the dimming wire whose definition didn't seem to match up with the definition of the dimming function wire on the head unit harness, but I ended up just connecting them anyway and it worked properly to dim the head units display when you turn the car's headlights on. Overall this was Quality unit that fit right into the factory wiring and made the install go quick and smooth. I wish they included crimp connectors so you could just get right to connecting rather than make another trip to buy connectors.

Bueno

It just the right radio plug I needed fit well works just fine my radio works now sounds great

Bought this for my 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara. For installation, I soldered the wires to the harness that came with my BOSS Audio BV9364B BOSS Audio BV9364B In-Dash Double-Din 6.2-inch Touchscreen DVD/CD/USB/SD/MP4/MP3 Player Receiver Bluetooth Streaming Bluetooth Hands-free with Remote . The wires that were on the BOSS harness were exact color matches to the Metra harness so that made soldering of the wires quick, easy, and painless. A description of what the wire is (ACC 12V, Constant 12V, Ground, Left Front Speaker, Right Rear Speaker, etc.) is printed directly on the outside insulation. These also perfectly matched my BOSS wires. For those wary of soldering, you always have the option of using quick splice connectors such as these Solderless Wire Quick Splice Connector - 18-22 Gauge - 25 Pack to get the job done. Note that you should use this specific wire gauge range on the connectors because the 14-18 AWG version has a hard time of getting solid connections. Also be sure to use amazon garage, car audio specific websites, or the vehicle owner's manual, etc to make sure this adapter will fit your factory harness.
