My car was broken into a while back and the dumb@&& cut the radio out past the harness. So I have been looking for a while and now I figured I would post and someone just might have one or know where to get. I want to buy the factory harness. It would be the part that would actually plug into the radio harness. Please any help to find one or even if someone has it would help. Thanks.

Best Buy or any reputable car stereo place that installs. I let the stereo shop install mine for $25.00(just the head unit) and they supplied the harness.

That would work great for me, but I dont have the harness that the shop would use to hook the one they would use on the radio to hook it into, if that makes any sense. Basically when you take it to a shop they take the head unit install a aftermarket harness on the radio that would install into the harness that is in the. I dont have the one in the car anymore.

I worked in a shop as an installer for a few years and any installer who knows what hes doing could test the wires and hard wire your head units harness to it. It does take a little more time but it can still be done. we never charged anymore for it either. good luck

Same thing happened to me. Just get an aftermarket harness and a wiring diagram for your car and start splicing. I got a soldering iron and some electrical tape and it took about an hour plus some burns and cuts from the wire.
