"Aerpro" Aftermarket H/U wiring plug for VR - VS
Most that have cut the stock vehicle wiring harnes may have regretted it later on should another head unit need fitting I see this shown in the pics above.
There is a plug available with 7" or so of color coded wires ready to solder up / heatshrink the joints and simply plug it in to the existing loom and your good to go, it saves a lot of stress, time and any possibility of having a stray +ve wire hit any earth while working in the confined spaces of the dash.
The company is Aerpro found at the following web site, http://www.aerpro.com.au/ for Toyota Lexcen and Holden VR-VS is part # AP1783H, I found that in respect of the car's loom that the constant +ve wire is the Yellow and accesories is an Orange, opposite to many wiring diagrams so it pays to put a meter inside the existing plug just to check this out before going any further, Note; some seem to be different on the same model perhaps due to the car's manufacture date ?
After soldering the new plug's wires to the H/U chosen the new plug simply clips into the existing car's loom, shown on the packet are the new plug's wiring codes which were true to lable for my VS, and although different colours are in some wires on the car side of things, the wiring colours on the new plug side matched my Kenwood H/U exactly so it may well fit many other aftermarket h/u wiring, 11 basic wires are on most Kenwood H/U's, plus another two for the electric aerial, Blue and Blue/white.
The new plug is coded;
Yellow - +12v constant
Red - +12v accessories
Black - earth
Grey - right front (+)
Grey/black - right front (-)
White - left front (+)
White/black - left front (-)
Violet - right rear (+)
Violet/black - right rear (-)
Green - left rear (+)
Green/black - left rear (-)
* Pink - mute, "ignore"
* Blue - power antenna "ignore unless used"
* Blue/white - remote "ignore unless used"
* Orange - ilumination "ignore"
* Orange/white dimmer "ignore"
* sometimes not all fitted / not used, depends on model, 2 antenna wires will be fitted tho.
