Metra - Turbo Wire Aftermarket Radio Wire Harness Adapter for Select Subaru Vehicles - White

The wires on this harness were color coded and matched the wire colors on a radio I had owned for abour 15 or 20 years (which I was installing in my car), All I had to do was strip insolation, twist wires together, apply the wire nots, then plug it in to the car harness. Worked the 1st time! And to think, I almost tried to put this radio in by tracing wires, etc. I will never install a car radio without one of these harnesses ever again!!! Worth every penney.

I bought this adapter harness along with an aftermarket radio to install into my 2005 Subaru Impreza. This adapter is a must for installing any radio. I double checked all the wire connections on the adapter harness and all the wires matches to the radio harness. I connected and soldered all the wires and wrapped with electrical tape and the radio was ready for install.

It’s exactly what you need for many, MANY different Subaru’s. Used to install the Sony XAV-AX100 into my new to me 2004 WRX Wagon, my 3rd Rex, and I’ve used this to install head units into all three I’ve owned over the last ~15 years. Yep. It’s the right Subaru one for meee!!!

You have to have one of these if you are installing any type of upgrade system to your car/truck. You do not want to be cutting in to the vehicles wiring harness EVER. Get this piece and have piece of mind when doing the install. Worth every penny ... I even got it on sale !!!

If you have some wiring skills you may not need this. However it does make installation quicker and easier. My advice is purchase this when you buy your stereo and if you feel comfortable that you can wire it without it just return it.

This item does exactly what the manufacturer and Best Buy's website advertise it will do. Makes wiring your head unit very easy. I've used several different kinds of harnesses and adapters in the past, but METRA has always been reliable, and easy to use!

Not much more to say. I do wish it came with cremps or soemthing of the sorts to allow for easier install but not too bad. All the wire colors matches up.

I had to solder the harness to my harness that came with the stereo, the description and pin out made the installation easy and simple. It was only in my case where soldering was necessary, you could use other non-solder solutions otherwise.
