Head Unit Help Needed (please)

[Trutrax]

So, I bought this XDMR7710 unit off some dude in a trench coat for $10...only thing is, it didn't come with any sorta wire harness... Does anyone know where I could get one so I can hook it up? My current connectors are too big for this one...

*Edit* sorry, forgot to mention...I'm in a 93 240sx

Any help at all would be awesome, thanks.

check the manufactures website, and you're gonna need to get and adapter harness from bestbuy, circuit city, or any stereo shop

[Trutrax]

adapter harness? and the website doesn't have anything about ordering spare parts. =/

[BoostedCoupe]

go to an audio store they will more than likley have what your looking for. More than likley it your head unit is stolen it seems from the way you bought it.

lol... you bought a headunit from a guy in a trenchcoat... and that didnt seem at all shady to you at the time of purchase? Youre lucky it wasnt some undercover cop who wouldve busted your ass.

Go to their store and do your thang!

If your factory radio harness has not been touched before, then go to Best Buy, Circuit City, or any audio shop and tell them you need an adapter harness for the 240 to whatever radio you have, and get the wire harness for the radio. Also the yellow wires you pointed out are not used unless you have an amp or something to plug in for the aux source.

[Trutrax]

Alright, I'll check out bestbuy today. That website didn't have anything I needed for the 240. heh

[statik]

You need to get TWO harnesses, one for the radio itself, and one generic radio install harness for the 240, unless you want to wire it directly, which based on the this thread I would say would wind up burning your 240 to the ground. Stop buying stolen shit from guys in trench coats.

And for the love of God don't cut off the chassis plugs and wire it directly.


sooooooo annoying. :axe: :rl:

[posdriftin]

dude go to egay... there for cheap. thats were i got mine when the wires were to short...hope this helps...

[Trutrax]

thanks everyone....but shit, I still can't find the radio harness anywhere...no one is selling them.

[importdude]

try ebay,there are a few

most of the time they use the same harness for all there lineup

check to make sure first

[Speedfiends]

lol you need 2 harnesses and an antenna adaptor 40-NI10

What kind of radio is that? It looks like Jensen radio. You need a Metra harness, the part number is 80-1763. Use that so you don't cut the factory radio plug.

If you can tell me what radio that is I can either make you your harness or I can see if i have that around here. I used to work in the Roadshop at Circuit City.

well, I went to bestbuy and tried to get my hands on just the harness...they wouldn't have it..said they can't sell individual parts...even tried offering the dude a lil' extra under the table if he could hook me up...still no go. T_T

Anywho radio is by Dual Electronics...this is what I need

Figure once I get the radio harness....just colour match the wires to the the ebay harness and then connect to the stock connectors? heh

[breakindrifts]

Uh? You still the damn harness that plugs to the pins on back of the radio, those are manufacturer specific. The harness from eBay is just to plug into the existing OEM wiring plug then color match to the wires from the cd/receiver harness that you still need.

You fail! Call up the manufacturer and they should be able to get you the pig tail.
