2009 Ford F250

Replaced the factory cd changer with a Sony in-dash dvd head unit. Soldered and heat-shrinked this adapter to the sony wires and then plugged it right into the truck's wiring harness. Clean and simple. Only problem is the dimmer setting -- sometimes I have to turn the headlights on to get the display to light up. That may be a problem with the sony unit.

I went to many websites and some say this wiring fits my 03 Ford explorer and some sites said no. I went ahead anyways. Found out it is not capatable. Had to go to my local car audio store To get another one. I'm rating high pretending if this did fit it's worth the cost.

Neccessary if you don't want to mess up the wiring harness..

With a little research you'll find out that this harness can be attached to the head unit outside the vehicle. Then the installation becomes an almost simple swap.
I verified the wires/colors are a match, some were not, but easy enough to get passed it. Then soldered all wires appropriately and secured them with heatshrinkable tube and a few zip ties. Made it look like a professional install, not that it matters since it's hidden in the dash. Took the old unit out and the new one in.

As a note: If you add someting like steering wheel controls you can or need to use more wires out of this harnes. Do some research. I would buy one of these again if I need to, they are real time savers.

Most features work, except 1

This adapter does make for an easy, reliable connection for power and speakers. However, the Orange – Dash Light Dimmer/Illumination wire is connected, but NOT dimming the player. This could be the result of the head unit or vehicle, but it's frustratingly bright ALWAYS.

Excellent product

I have installed high end car stereos in my cars since I was a teenager decades ago, but have never used a pre-wired compatible connector before (probably because they didnt exist). Sonic supplied this with my purchase of a Jensen VM9022HD receiver and it is terrific. Not only does it save installation time and your back (splicing under the dash wiring), but if you decide to convert your vehicle back to the original equipment, it's clean, quick and easy. Highly recommended, wish I tried it many years ago.

Wrong part.

This came with the free installation kit as part of my radio purchase, it wired up beautifully, but left two additional wiring harnesses with nothing to plug into. Needless to say, the radio would not power on. So I went down to my local stereo shop and dropped 249.95 on the right harness. Works perfectly, just more than I wanted to spend.
