I have a 2007 Camry LE V6 standard radio, changed the speakers 4 6x9 polk better than the JBL GTO that I had in the previois Camry 2005 and added a subwoofer with own amplifier, sound pretty good, but I wanted to change the radio for JBL w/bluetooth....going to the point I bought the JBL radio w/bluetooth on ebay like new, when I finally took the original radio found out the some conectors on the back are different from the JBL.
Anybody can help me?
Thanks

You not just get a new head unit? Will be much better than the JBL.

I already have another cd players from pioneer, but I like the look of the factory radio, specially that comes with builtin cd changer and blutooth.
Do you the solution for this problem?

You didn't do your research properly. The JBL head unit requires the JBL amp that is under the passenger seat. I just saw a JBL amp for sale on EBay yesterday (search for 07 Camry) but I don't think it came with any wiring.

You will get much better sound quality by using an aftermarket head unit. YOu will not need to use a high to low filter. There are many head units that will look great in your car. With a lot more features.
There are adaptors to use aftermarket head unit with the JBL amp, because that is what most people will want to do. But I have never seen an adaptor to use the JBL headunit with an aftermarket amp. I tried to do you a favor and find the JBL amp that I saw yesterday on EBay, but I couldn't find it. I remember that it was selling rather cheaply, since there is not a big used market for this part.

If you are already using an aftermarket amp, then the solution is pretty simple: buy a reverse wire harness for the OEM radio and wire it to the existing harness in the car, then the radio, and then add LOCs for the RCAs. If you do not have the aftermarket amp, the easiest solution would be the buy the OEM JBL amp. The JBL radio that you bought is made by Panasonic IIRC and it does not have a built in amplifier like your original radio which is why you are having problems matching the wiring harnesses. I know it might have gotten a little wordy, but did that make sense?

Yes tks, I found the JBL amplifier, but the problem is the wire harness between JBL radio-amplifier, the reverse wire that scosche has it looks that doesnt work tomorrow I will call scosche if they have a solution for my case. Two things I regret was my purchase assuming the wire would be the same and the lack of response from the ebay radio supplier for help.(I didnt ask for return but just for help) On the other hand you guys where awesome. Thanks again. By the way I dont give-up easily and I will continues looking for reverse wire to connect this radio with any amplifier.
The harness that I found is to be used from oem radio and jbl amplifier they call JBL Synthesis Radio harness. If is diffrent than that tell me what is.
Tks
