Review on Metra 70-7301 Radio Wiring Harness for Hyundai and Kia 1999-2008 by John Martin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It turned out EXCELLENT!

Bought for a 2006 Kia Spectra 5 and used to install an XDM16BT dual media player. A very cheap device that was basically just installed to get Bluetooth and bring the car into the modern world as the standard radio didn't have a BT or Aux input. It turned out SUPER and looks great. I have an issue with the rear right speaker sounding out of phase so I just disconnected that wiring harness and went back to the stock radio to diagnose and that is the speaker itself. I just turn up the volume on that speaker and it rings 30 better. I'm not a car audio pro, but maybe I'll find out later. But for the wiring harness I did it with butt connectors and tape wrapped all over the bundle for a neat job. Some wires were not used, I'm guessing the blue/white and orange LIGHTING wires as they weren't in the radio harness. It was actually quite simple, I pulled the negative on the battery, but if you are careful and cautious (remove the key) you can leave it on for easier diagnosis.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
