    Thanks for showing all those connectors behind the head unit. I think the connector which you said you didn't use is actually the one I need to hook into for the steering wheel controls, but I couldn't figure out what the other connections on it went to and what the other side of the plug would be. Seeing that you didn't even use it makes me feel better about fabricating a connector that only grabs the one connection I need off it.

    Hi! I have a 2008 Outback with factory navigation. I bought the car used a week ago, and the navigation screen is broken. I'm looking to replace it entirely with an aftermarket one rather than repair the factory screen (because that one doesn't have Bluetooth and other features that the aftermarket ones tend to have). Do you know if it's possible to install it in the area above the climate controls? I would hate to have a dead screen on top and a working one on bottom.

But the wiring harness is what I wanted to know more about. did you ever find out the wiring harness info from the individual who sold you the stereo? And if so could you please display that info or send it to me so I can go ahead and start putting in a stereo into my car. CANT WAIT!!! Thanks.

      I’m sorry Roman. I did this video so long ago I don’t think the guy makes them anymore. I searched and haven’t found him. When I purchased the harness 6 years ago I didn’t even think I was going to get it then one day it should up. I too was so happy for that.
      Have you looking into seeing if you can get a part the plastic peace and make your own? I feel like that would be the best option I don’t think anyone makes these harnesses anymore because of how old the car is

  • @tonyrafaat4295

    Hi, Quick question from a Subaru owner with no stereo install experience. When you connect the 14 pin harness wires to the HU harness do you match up all colours? eg. white to white, gray to gray, etc.. OR are the speaker connections typically different colours? Thanks for your help.

    • @dirtywhitellama
      @dirtywhitellama 2 роки тому +1

      Probably too late to help you, but if anyone else has this same question, the 14 pin harness and the HU harness should each come with a chart that indicates what each color of wire is. A lot of them are pretty standard (power, accessory/switched power, ground, front and rear speakers) and will generally be the same, but different manufacturers sometimes pick different colors for the less standard stuff like parking brake signal, steering wheel controls, etc.

    • @SVXdc
      @SVXdc Рік тому

      On some Legacy/Liberty/Outback models (especially those outside of the USA and Canada), even when the factory stereo has a button labeled "AUX" the car lacks the wiring harness and 3.5mm aux jack. In those cars, it is possible to add a harness that will let you connect and use an aux audio source. There are aftermarket vendors in the USA, Australia, and probably other countries who sell those.

      On 2005-2009 Legacy and Outback models built in Subaru's USA plant, the radio and HVAC controls are all on one large PC board. So when you remove the factory radio you'll also be removing the HVAC controls. That's why people use the JDM HVAC panel kit.

    Do you have steering wheel controls? Is it possible to keep them or do we lose them? Thanks!

      BrokenWrench's car does not, but for cars that do have them -- yes it is possible. You will want another adapter harness that BrokenWrench did not mention (to connect to the car's harness that Subaru designates "i85").

      Unfortunately yes twist the hell out of it. I just hope that yours is not broken inside. After the video I was taking it out for another video and mine now just spins! Will need to cut it off at this point
