I just purchased a new head unit to replace the Mach 460 headunit in my '02 Mustang GT. I purchase a Scosche FD1280A dask kit (Walmart.com: Scosche Ford Truck, SUV Car Stereo Installation Kit: Auto) and the Metra 70-5519 wiring harness (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350089439766). The headunit I purchase is a VR3 VRCD400-SDU (Walmart.com: Virtual Reality Sound VR3 CD Player w/ USB and Scan Disk Inputs: Auto).
I've removed the stereo to take a look at the cables connected to it. I noticed that there are three cables currently connected to me factory Mach 460 headunit. I've read many places that the only wiring harness I will need is the one that comes with the stereo, and the Metra 70-5519.
The back of the new headunit has the following connections:
Audio Out (RCA - 1 x Red + 1 x White)
Subwoofer Out (RCA - 1 x Red + 1 x White)
Antenna Socket (Standard)
Radio Plug (Headunit is packaged with the wiring harness for the headunit which connects to the Metra 70-5519)
Assuming that I have everything I need, can someone give me some input as to what exactly I need to do to install this new headunit?
