Caution with 2013 models and install

bigaudiofanat

Well I got my hands on a 2013 base 370z today for a basic head unit, rear camera, and rear speaker install. Something that should of taken me no more than 4 hours ended up taking almost 10 hours! I strongly suggest reading on.

The biggest problem was the standard metra harness model 70-7552. Let me start by saying it is the wrong one!. It will plug in just like any older model z. However the factory wiring harness is completely different referring to how it's wired. The only wires that are still correct are Front Left speakers, Illumination, and Constant 12 volt. Other than those you have to purchase an additional unit and add pins in blanks in order to use it. I notified metra about this as well as sent them pictures. They replied by saying it is the correct harness and you may have had a defective harness. (Note here that we bought two of them from worst buy)





Anyone that will be using the metra aswc, make sure you check the newest diagrams! They changed where the pins are located.

New door grommets, these are now solid with no space for a speaker wire. You will be able to drill through them just make sure your drilling thought an empty area. I will have a how to guide later on.
