New Stereo

Post by beeker006 »

Going to be picking up my new 2008 Vibe sometime today. And the first thing that i want to do is change the stock stereo out for something that has a USB and/or AUX port on the front. I don"t have to much extra to spend on it right now. So I was going to go a little cheap for now and get a better one down the road.

I found this one on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-DEH-1300M ... car+stereo" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

and I am assuming that I would need some kind of mounting kit. Is there anything else that I would need to make it work?

Thanks.

The wiring harness.
Unless you're comfortable with cutting off the factory harness and using crimp connectors :|
The harness still requires you use crimp connectors or soldering but saves your factory harness.

I cannot encourage the "twist and tape" method... it will always come back to bite you
