I have a Sony CDX-C5000X CD Player and I removed the stock MB stereo and the back looks NOTHING like the one from the Sony's except the power connector. I wanted to know if I needed a wiring harness or special wires.
They dont have any kits for my car at Fry's or Best Buy ( www.outpost.com www.bestbuy.com).
I was wondering how some of you guys have done it or are doing it. I only have speakers but I need new wiring for the right side because I hear nothing from the speakers.
-Thanks a lot!

Alright here is how it goes. You need the harness that is Model Specific to that Sony HU. so if you got the head unit and none of the connectors that go to the back of it, you need to get one.
This harness if for a JEEP but is used strictly for visual purposes. You need the one that fits the back of your HU.
Okay, now that you have the harness for your headunit you need to splice the wires from the harness to the wires that come out of your car. You will need some wire cutters/strippers and some crimp ends and a crimper. usually all those come in one tool. Now the MB colors will NOT match the ones on your Headunit for a color diagram i suggest you ask or if you want i can pull my HU and take a picture for you. Everything else is pretty much fair game. For your speaker you may not need new wires but its always fun to replace them but check all connections and make sure they ARE in fact connected.
