i just got a new head unit so i bought the wiring harness for toyotas it says 97 and up, but it is not the right fit for my 97 XLE, somehow i didn't check it when i took out the head unit, i have the new stereo harness all soldered to it, i don't know what to do now!!!

The harness in your car is one plug with about 20 pins right?
And the one you just soldered on is two plugs one with 4 pins and the other with about 10?

If yes, you'll need to find the amp in your car and bypass it.

You bought the right one. Just follow the procedure in this thread.

ye i had the same heart attack when working on mine... then i called a friend and he told me bout the seperate harness wiring to bypass. you can also remove the factory amp as well its fairly difficult and requires u to remove a bunch of wireties & clips along with removal of the glovebox to get to it.
