Show original supplier description
The Metra 70-1771 is a receiver wiring harness engineered to simplify the installation of an aftermarket car stereo by allowing a direct connection to your vehicle's factory wiring. This 16-pin harness maintains the electrical integrity of your 4-speaker audio system without requiring permanent modification to the original factory harness. It serves as a replacement component for specific models from Ford, Lincoln, Mazda, Mercury, and Nissan spanning the 1998 to 2011 model years. Please verify your specific vehicle's audio configuration before installation, as certain trim levels, such as those with factory navigation or Audiophile sound systems, may have specific exclusions or compatibility requirements as noted in the fitment guide.
