i have just bought a my00 uk turbo late classic shape and i tried to fit my alpine cda-9853r headunit only to find that the connectors on the headunit dont fit the connections on the car do i need to buy an adaptor for this and if so what exactly do i need ?
thanks ian

 

Assuming that the Alpine has a standard ISO lead, which it probably does, then you need one of these:

Low Cost Car Audio | Autoleads PC2-44-4 *PC2444 - Subaru ISO harness lead

 

Yes the Alpine will have ISO's unless they have been chopped off or non Alpine lead.

 

yeah it just has the standard connectors it had when i bought it it wasnt that long ago also have the ipod adaptor for it . thanks for the help will try and sort one out tommorow:*)

 

A little more expensive, but these places have excellent customer service:

Autoleads PC2-29-4 ISO Lead £7.66 Autoleads, Sextons Direct

Car Audio Direct - Subaru wiring adaptor - Fitting Adaptor

 

think they will have them at halfords or motorworld as i hate not havin my tunes on when im driving
thanks for the help m8

 

yea they do sell em at halfords, they clip straigh in. takes 2 minutes.

 

Just check as i believe MY00 already has the iso plugs. Go down the wires a little and check if the next plug down fits staight in.

I only say this because i bought the adapter for my MY99 and then found i didnt need it for my Clarion head unit.

 

I just fitted an Alpine unit and did not need an adaptor so not 100% on this one. Did you take the plug straight out of teh standard unit as there is another plug further down. Make sure theres no leads left connected to the original unit.

 

yeah i needed the connector managed to get one from halfords
only thing is now i cant get the stupid plastic surround thingy to fit cant remember if if its right one or if its broken. can you buy those from anywhere?

 

Is that the alpine facia surround, youll need to make sure where the little tabs on the surround go into the cage is nice and flat. Sometimes when you fit the cage it gets bent slightly, you need to open up the 5 little slots and make sure there even and not bent in anyway. Hope that makes sense.
