Question:

Have wiring harnesses changed on aftermarket car stereos since 2002 or so?

I have a 98 Acura. I put in a Sony car stereo in 1999 or 2000 maybe. Have wiring harnesses stayed the same since then? Basically I just want to put in a newer stereo to get current features like AUX in (on front) or SD/USB slots. No amplifier involved Are most of the stereos today set up the same so I just need to pull the old one and swap the wiring harness? Or does it also vary by brand? Thanks

Answer:

Hello, wire harness, there must be a change of different period, has a different way, other times in rapid development, should be able to change the wire and of course form
It does vary by brand, but most head unit manufacturers have changed their harness design (sometimes more than once) in the last 15 years. If you replace your head unit, plan to re-do the wiring.
