Accord stereo wire harness

[Fel1x]

(posting here as no response in Accord forum)

The missus has an 01 Accord in which the standard stereo has shat itself.
I'm looking to replace it. Anyone know what wiring harness this will need?

Also, will i need 2x wiring harnesses? eg.
headunit <-> headunits harness <-> Honda accord harness <-> speakers etc.

Many Thanks

Hey mate

I always hard wire mine in.

Its not hard, give it a try

All you need is wire strippers, heat shrink and a lighter

I did a quick google search for you

Should help you match your wires up

That link was for a 98 that might work but just check you have the same wires

if he can find a harness for his car, it might be easier for him to wire it into the car

wiring the headunit can be a little scary for some people lmao

Thanks guys.
Im good with the wiring, done a fair amount of soldering on PCB's in my day.
But do headunits come with the wires already exposed, or is it just a plug socket on the back?

depends, the aeropro ones are not exposed, they are just plug and play

if you can get one, turns a 2 hour job (doing it correctly with solder and careful hands) into a 10 minute job

if you buy a headunit, the wiring loom has a plug on one end, bare wires on the other, like so

Then you have to cut the plug off the car end, and join the wires.

If you dont want to do this, you buy 2 harness from aerpro, one that plugs into the headunit and has 2 universal male plug on the other end, and one that plugs into the car that has 2 universal female.

So you go;

HEADUNIT > aerpro cable 1 > aerpro cable 2 > Car
