Review on 🔌 Metra 70-5514 Amp Bypass Radio Wiring Harness System by Ronald Orear

Well, first of all I have mixed reviews. want to explain. First an adapter to bypass the amplifier. This part of the kit is fine, you unplug the amp, plug in the bypass harness and you're done. The connectors are solid, the pins are aligned and make good contact. The connector for the power wiring to the head unit in the dashboard is also OK. Now let's move on to the speaker wiring adapter that connects to the wiring harness in the dash. It's the square black connector in the upper-left corner of the picture. This plug must be removed from the packaging, smashed with a hammer and thrown in the trash immediately. Thats so bad. Many wrote in their reviews how bad this connector is, and all this is true. The pins are misaligned, very loose and even pushing out the back of the connector housing itself. I ended up having to cut the connector off, decipher the wiring, then solder and heat shrink to get it working properly. Throw away that particular connector and don't even try to use it. Otherwise the other connections are fine.
