I show you how to install a aftermarket car Radio in a car (96 trans am). This is a single din head unit and very easy install.

Thank you so much for posting. I'm a 63 year old widow and I watched your video and installed my own new radio for the first time in my life. It's working great. Thank you!
Glad it helped you 😀
Bro.....that was the most explsined video. Total life saver!
Lol hella
Yeah sadly alot of females who are into this kind of stuff go to a shop where they do car audio installing and get ripped off for such an easy job just takes time but places be charging couple hundred dollars extra when it's so simple my boy paid for subwoofer installment 400dollars when its actually really really easy and people off the street with knowledge only charge 50-150$ huge difference
If you want a good quality cd player for car you need to buy either a Pioneer sony jvc or Kenwood because those brands have like the best quality cd players they lasted forever and they indeed WILL last longer than your cheap factory delco cd player and any other cheap aftermarket brand
On some real shit
Ty this is so helpful gonna got get the harness today much love man
"Who uses CD's anymore?" Continues to call it a CD player xD
I use cd's!

Not only helpful, but enjoyable. Thanks for explaining it in a way anyone can understand 👍
No way to describe you and this video but with one word, Legendary. You saved my life with this video because there aren't many in depth tutorials on here, but you my friend have blessed everyone!
I still play CDs because I am a nerd but this was a helpful video thank you for the upload!
My car has a tape deck and i found some tapes that i play sometimes 😂
You should record yourself replacing the stock speakers to aftermarket ones
great video - best I have seen -
a couple things -
a) make sure your wiring harness comes with butt ends - you dont want to mess with electrical tape, especially if you live in an are with wildly different temperatures over different season (midwest)
b) you need FOUR items to do this install ( not counting tools )
1) the deck
2) a wiring harness (with butt ends)
3) the antenna adapter (SCOSCHE GM02BCB)
4) mounting kit (Metra 99-3009)
I was able to get all 4 of these items from Amazon for $60.
Why the fuck would someone spend 60 bucks for stuff to just install the stereo tf

@@dnegel9546 yo big dog this was a year ago I was a fucking idiot back then I had no idea what I was talking about lmao sorry about that tho
@@jasonwilliams8393 yo I'm sorry about what I commented I was a moron back then legit did not have a single idea what I was talking a out you were completely right
I’m so clueless with this stuff, thanks!!
I couldn’t have found a better video, I get to learn from someone with the same type of car!
Damn, Late Night Tip! Haven't heard that in a minute
Threeeee 6 MAFIAAAAA
It's been mentioned already in the comments, but for sake of importance people: please don't use wire nuts for car audio or any kind of automotive wiring.
If you don't know how to solder, the easiest thing to do is use closed end caps. It's like wire nuts but they crimp on with a pair of pliers. They're a much more solid connection and you don't need electrical tape that will make a sticky stinky mess if you ever have to get back into it.
Closed end caps can be purchased at any auto parts store. They are usually white and look kinda like those blue wire nuts you saw in the video.
I enjoyed your video! Though i must say, though not everyone can solder wires together, wire caps, or wire nuts, are a terrible idea for audio. When audio wiring it is important to ensure good connections, if you dont have them, you loose sound quality. A recommendation for those that cant solder is to atleast use heat shrink crimp connectors, this way there is a decent connection between the wires, and it will be waterproof incase you get moisture behind the dash.
THIS WAS VERY HELPFUL...especially for someone like me who is not car efficient with putting stuff together. I'm a DIY'er so with this I think I can do it myself. Thank you. I HOPE my cover kit is right for my model we'll see. Thank you!
Brody I have a 86 Pontiac Fiero GT 2.8L I love this car! But, this video helped me a lot I just started learning to work on cars I am a video game nerd at heart lol. Also Three Six Mafia is hella badass I loved watching them hang out with Bam Margera back in the day when he was younger on mtv. Definitely down with the era in which I grew up lol.
Couldn't believe we had the same car. Made finding the parts and stuff so easy
Nice ending with the "Late Night Tip"
Thank you for uploading this video, I finally was able to install my new car radio and this video was to the point and easy to follow, thanks 👍🏽
So so freaking easy but better said then done .. much respect. Salute bro
Damn bro that’s a lifesaver I’m getting this for Christmas and gonna install it on my future 2000 Mercury Mountainerr
brooo much better than any of the other videos on youtube, thanks!!
Bro thank you so much I bought a new radio to replace my crappy car one and this video is so useful. Cant wait to be able to have aux in my car
I guess that is not professional with the cables( I will do the same ) , I mean so good explraned and you show us every single step and corner . Just awesome mate 🙌🙌🙌👌
Great video bro, i needed to replace my WS6’s stereo. This really helped a lot
"Late Nite Tip" (No Relationships) by Three 6 Mafia.. Funny you played that song, cause you have a wife lol.. Good video man
Dude I like it, i wish you made this video about a month ago because I installed a new radio and my dads 12" subwoofer into my 2013 chevy cruise and that was so freaking frustrating! I couldn't find wires and I had to disassemble my whole dash just to get to the radio!! But after trial and error I got everything in and it works like a charm. Can't wait to see what's next for your car and your next video, keep up the good work!!
Nick Basel Thanks brother! Glad you got it worked out!
Did you connected the black together with one blue ?
I still use CD’s

Great video! Well done! Thanks!😃❤️
Thank you very much!! It’s very helping
Me :))
Should undo your negative on your battery when doing this
well you don't have to but its safe to always have the battery unhooked when working on the car
I've never understood why everyone says undo the negative on the battery cuz I've had shit arc on me after just the negative, i always just do pos and neg both
But what about the ground wire? These tutorials never tell you you have to install a ground wire.
Had one in my 91 S10. Bought $35 on Amazon thought it was Bose😂 good radio though.
Keep that Original head unit it’s always good to keep original part in case down the line you ever want to sell it for whatever reason
Sir u have my respect
Sony head units/receivers normally have Output Error at high volume with the factory wire harness. Some suggest to use a higher capacity power/ground wires. How do you install this and still maintain the function of using only key in ignition ACC position, not directly from the batter?
when hooking up any kind of electronics home or car...always connect the power lead wire last!!!
If you use an amplifier you can skip the speaker color to color right ??
Link to that stereo connector would be great
I know I'm late but www.amazon.com/dp/B01CG8N0H8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_7PBPKGK3MC7E6HDMA1MJ
When you connected the harnesses, you twisted the wires together and used an lighter? Or did you just twist the wires.
Wait...was that Krazy Bone!!
Dude thanks
I’m looking to replace my 02 car head unit what’s the difference in head units? Why some hella cheap and some crazy expensive what’s the difference
Damn that dash kit is a perfect fit. Unfortunately for me (prius) i hv to pull pioneer stereo outward a little bit to get inside the stupid trim plate to push buttons and eject the plate.
Do you have an update on the longevity, updated review on this unit? I’m looking for one and coincidentally came across this one on Amazon. There are a bunch of mixed reviews, including one from a person whose unit caught on fire; so it would be very helpful if you could give an insight on what was/has been your experience with it. Thank you!
Man it's a shame the old unit doesn't have an aux in or something cos I love the physical mixer xD
So my car already has an after market head unit, but I need to upgrade it. So will all the wiring be done and just plug the new one in?
All you will have to do is just unplug the old wiring harness from the radio and you will be good.
Thank You .! 🔥
Im getting one for my 1987 LTD Crown Victoria
I know this video is really old, but can you tell me how you fit that OEM bracket on your head unit? My BOSS 635uab doesn't have screw holes that line up.
Hi great video. I installed a single din radio but it does not turn on but when I connect acc and battery together it turns on but when disconnect it won’t turn on. Ground is also connected. Any idea. Thx
Triple six mafia 👍👍
Can you use steering wheel controls?
TomozukiII nope at least not with mine an my bros but the previous owner installed both ours and there is probably wires that aren’t connected
hey, i have a question.
in my car i have only one black wire and i don't know how to connect the radio. i brought the car without radio and all the videos that i watched were about getting out the old radios and putting new ones. you seemed the guy who might explain. thanks
Here's something weird- not sure if it's it's my new Kenwood with the problem or not. After having the Kenwood 2 din installed for several mos, I then installed LED brake lights in my car on the left & right sides. After a while, I noticed my radio receptions was sometimes not as good as other times. THEN, I installed a LED in the 3rd brake light in the back window (the radio antenna is built into the rear window). Now, everytime I hit my brakes, I lose all radio reception. I never heard of this happening before and don't know what to do about it. Any insight to this mystery is appreciated.
I still listen to cds.
Did you have to disconnect the car battery first? Or, is that not neccessary?
ayyyy three 6 mafiaaa
Ayeee three 6 mafia
Life saver
Before I watch this video I predict that he wont explain and match any wires...edit and cut with wires connected..let's go!
It's literally just "connect [this color] wire with another wire with the same color" how much hand holding do you want
Its 2020 and I still use my cd player lol
Thx bro some dick tip stole my stereo from my Mitsubishi eclipse
when connecting the wires together on the harness, do i just twist the wires?
Does the battery have to be disconeccted
I’m just trying to hook up an aux to my car or Bluetooth
Did you keep your factory gm cd player?? I am looking to buy one atm, im trying to get my 96 Firebird back to "dealer showroom" condition as much as possible...aftermarket car radios a just a big turnoff for me, lol i cant help it
Can someone explain to me what the harness does?
Braydon Morgan it allows you to connect an aftermarket stereo to your ancient car. (If that helps) 😂😂
And it also keeps you from butchering your cars stock wires
thanks for the video!
Hi got myself a Jensen stereo with Bluetooth connected everything but the Bluetooth won’t work the aux does. Do you know why ?
Got the same one on dad truck trying to connect to BT but it says enter pin what do I do now ?
Do I need anything besides the radio and the wires that come with it?
I still play CD's in my cars.
Me too😎
After that song u played your invited to the cook out
Where can I get those wire nuts at?
Where can I get wire harness to match my 2001 chevy silverado truck
Question how do to put the wires together
And what did you use
I'm trying to install an aftermarket on a 78 Chevy Nova Ss and can't find the wire hookups
have a little problem... it turns on and says hello then goodbye and won’t turn on
I hooked up yellow to yellow in a Buick Lucerne and nothing and when I turn the key.
Hey like I got mine today an 3 hour later it shut off by itself an will not turn on the fuse an wire was good idk why but it wont turn on
Would it be possible for you to link the unit you installed?
Amigo al pagarlo queda encendido con la hora, como hago para pagarlo totalmente?
What's the name of the song you played at the end?
