How To Replace A Car Stereo: GM Example.

[AlwaysReal4Life]

What about those wires that you didn't use?? What do you do with those?? Like the orange one and the others sitting there

[Johnnysshop]

@AlwaysReal4Life Orange would be for dimmer, blue for remote, etc.. Not needed.

@Johnnysshop The sad part is i just bought the car, a piston busted. The engine is ruined, so it has to be replaced.

[Johnnysshop]

@Mooreman50J Oh man that isn't good! Best of luck.

[Mooreman50J]

[Johnnysshop]

@Mooreman50J Cool!

[Mooreman50J]

I got a ? what was the kit you used? Plus where did you get it? Lol, and where did you get it?

[Johnnysshop]

@Mooreman50J This kit was made by Scoshe and I believe I got it at Advance Auto. You can get them at Crutchfield, Best Buy, Walmart, etc..

You should of showed how you put the stereo in because I can't find any YouTube videos on it. So when you pulled out the old stereo you removed the antenna cable and the adapter. So I just bought a new stereo and the adapter that went into my old 03 suburban stereo is too big for the new stereo so I am completely lost on what to do and I was hoping you would show how you plugged In the new stereo but you skipped that part any advise? Do I need an adapter that converts the big power plug into a

[Johnnysshop]

@TH31UHAT3 You'll need to buy another adapter and wire it to the back of the stereo for that car. I should have a few videos on here installing stereos. I know I show the wiring on one of them. Just search my vids "stereo".

I bought a wiring harness for my car, is it simple as plug and play? Theres a big plastic input slot that used to go to my original radio that is just dangling behind my aftermarket deck. My aftermarket deck uses a smaller slot. One I receive my wiring harness do i plug it into my original bigger sized harness? then proceed to connect the other smaller end to the aftermarket deck? dynamicsounds(dot)co(dot)uk/au­toleads-pc2554-jaguar-sovereig­n-xjv8-xj12-wiring-harness-p-9­196.html

@Rjjr510 Thats the part I bought. Im trying to re rewire my system since some foreigners did some hack job on it.

[Johnnysshop]

@Rjjr510 You'll have to wire the adapter to your deck wires. The adapter you wire in should be the same size dangling out of the car. It would just plug into that.

Hi Johnny,

Thanks for posting the vedios. I'm trying to install similar car stereo and i did not see , where to connect the remote wire that comes with the new car stereo to the car wiring.

[Johnnysshop]

@prasa162 You'll only need that if you are running an aftermarket amp.

Your a good dad

[Johnnysshop]

@TwiSteDxMeTaLx91 Thanks, I try!

[JerryTetris1]

how long did it take you to do all this?

[Johnnysshop]

@JerryTetris1 About 30 minutes normally but a bit longer with filming.

HI Johny, My factory wires don't seem to be working to my speakers, Are they hard to replace? Thank you

[Dosalt]

how do i connect the wires to the new radio??

[Johnnysshop]

@Dosalt There's a few parts to the video. I show them in another one.

[CODxFUNxMAN]

nice video, i have a 91 Buick LeSabre Custom and my rear speaker blew out and now my door and tweeter speakers on that right side keep making pop crackling statick noise but i do get music...i went to a electronic shop and they said it might be the tweeter but they are sure that its the whole radio...any advice? cheap fix?

[Johnnysshop]

@CODxFUNxMAN If it does it at all volumes it probably good be the stereo. If it's only at higher volumes then the speakers. But it could still be a bad speaker even at lower volumes.. Won't know without testing.. The easiest way would be to hook the left side speakers to the right channel of the radio. If it still does it you know it's the speakers.
