Head Unit installation problems - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I just bought a new Kenwood Head Unit and i'm somewhat lost as to how to install it. I have a '94 Corolla and i've pulled out the factory Unit. There are 3 exsisting plugs, 2 white and a blue one. I don't know what to do from there... lol... Help!

What does the blue connector look like? Is it a round plug? If it looks like a round plug with a contact in the middle, it is for the antenna.

The two white plugs are for power and speaker connections. You have two options: you can cut the two white plugs off and crimp the wires in your car to the ones on the new stereo, or you can buy a wiring harness which will connect to the two white connectors and connect the wiring harness wires to the stereo.

This link is for a 99 corolla, but it might be very close in procedure to your '94

Get a wiring harness like everyone suggested. It's like $7 at Walmart, and it'll make installation 10x easier. Don't even think about splicing the stock harness....

Get the harness adapter
