Brad,

I don't talk from direct experience so don't just take my word for it but I'm pretty sure that Kenwood use a Kenwood-only plug and lead from the multi-changer into the head unit so it wouldn't fit a non-Kenwood stereo. They may do an adaptor but I doubt it.

Sorry - that's probably not what you wanted to hear but I hope it helps

The standard head unit is a kenwood unit, and it uses the standard kenwood connector. It *should* work.
