I did some searching and I understand that if I'm JUST installing a new head unit I only need to get a new harness, available at Wal-mart and the like. And that I don't have to re-wire anything.

Am I correct on this?

Yes, look in 4.6talk. Bullitt owner replaced his 6 disc unit and needed an aftermarket Metra wiring harness.

I think there are actually two harnesses. One for the radio, and another for the amps hookup. I am researching this. I went to Metra, and they list three different harnesses for the amp, and a radio power one. I guess they are all the same.

You need the FDK-10 harness and the SLC-4 amp interface by Scosche. Wal Mart should have them.

Thank you!

I was reading that the amp interface is only needed if I'm adding an aftermarket amp, or is that wrong? I'll buy both anyway just to be safe.

Update. Those are NOT the correct adapters for a 2004 Mach 460 system. I'm having to order the correct adapter. Sucks, I spent all that time wiring up the wrong adapter.

The correct adapter for a 2004 Mch 460 system is Metra 70-5521. It allows you to keep the factory amp as well.

I did and it does has the MACH system listed up to 2000. I decided to give it a shot, didn't work. So I decided to post that it wasn't correct and then list the correct one for the 03-04 years incase anyone else was looking. I wasn't trying to say that you were wrong.

I found that through a LOT of google searching. I ordered it. When I receive it, I'll do a writeup on the install.
