Caution with 2013 models and install

Inda370z

I just finished an install on my 2013 as well. I got the metra harness and just removed the rear speaker pins and placed them in the spots needed for the steering wheel controls. Took me all of 10 minutes. I noticed you went with rear speakers so yeah you would of needed 2. As for the speakers, you are correct, You have to go through a solid grommet.

So for those not using rear speakers, get the metra or scosche harness and just remove the rear speaker pins from the harness and place them into slots to connect pins shown in the attached diagram. You can use a small eyeglass screwdriver to remove the pins, just insert it into the hole above the pin (when looking into the connector) this will give you a clean install with no factory wires being cut. As for ground, just run a line and create your own.

Wish I had that diagram the other day. Thanks for the info, Actually I would not of needed the rear speaker wires because they were begin pulled directly from the kenwood harness. And what are you saying about going through a solid grommet?

We didn't want to start pulling pins so we just purchased a second one and pulled pins from that. In any case is a company tells you it will work with your vehicle you should not have to do such things. I am still in contact with them so hopefully they will fix this. Also we are not talking about the wires for steering wheel controls but wires for power an the right speaker.

silly question, in the diagram of the pin #'s is that as you are looking into the harness or is that from the wire side? i think it is looking into the harness at the pins because that matches the 7552. if that is the wire side of the OEM harness that would be a good match as well.




maybe i am just over thinking it.
