Works great but I had to adjust

Works . I used it on my '97 Mercedes E320. I had to cut the RCA wires so I could connect the speaker wires from the stereo separately. Everything works and sounds great. It would be nice to have one without an RCA cable but I couldn't find it.

Good kit. I had to cut off the RCA connectors to make it work.

color marking made it easier and easier to connect the wiring harness to the radio. I assembled the tourniquet in 15 minutes. Installed the radio in less than an hour. Make sure you purchase all the tools you need to remove your old radio. In my case I wasn't entirely happy with the radio but it works fine with a few minor issues. added and greatly simplified the work.

  • SPEAKER

1995 Mercedes-Benz E300 with Factory Amplifier System

The biggest plus of this product is the fact that I didn't have to cut any of the OM cables. Of course there was the fact that I had to remove the RCA cables and wires. Speakers straight into the aftermarket stereo wiring harness (not really a big deal, the bottom of the RCA cables are color coded wires like green/black, white/black, purple/black, so a solid color is positive, and black wires - negative ) * PS for those who have 3 port audio system in w124s, TOP PORT IS LEFT. He is hidden. The…

Terrible experience. One of the RCAs is not working.

Terrible experience. One of the RCA's doesn't work no matter what I do with it. It took me several hours of testing to understand that this suspension was not working. I used this on an old radio and an old car so the last thing I thought was a problem was a brand new wiring harness. I tried to figure out if it was the radio, the car, the Amo and finally, after a few hours of fiddling, narrowed it down to one of the RCAs. I had to make my own to do this work which almost defeats the purpose of…

Pros
  • 70-1784
Cons
  • Exorbitant price

I used it on a 2001 Land Rover Discovery 2 with a Harmon Kardon (HK) system. You can also use a non-HK wiring harness to install an aftermarket HU, but the speaker output must be turned off if the factory amplifier interface is installed in the original wiring through the wiring harness. Interface: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw /d/B00009UHSO/ref=yo_ii_img Otherwise, you will soon hear the TV's high-frequency sound (which you hear when the TV is on) coming out of the speaker when you turn on the…

Great if you're using an aftermarket or factory amp.

I think that's the difference between buying from Crtchfield and Revain. Revain didn't give me a choice whether I had a Bose amp or not. (I don't have a Bose amp). They just assumed I had an amp and said "this harness will fit" but it wasn't properly connected to my non-Bose 2000 Mercedes E320. The RCA connectors are for connecting the preamp to the amp - had to cut the RCA ends and splice the speaker wires to use the built in radio amp. Also, the only pin in the right place on the power supply

  • Spare parts

Perfect for 1997 Mercedes-Benz E320

I am very happy with this product. Gone are the days of taking apart a standard wiring harness and I'm sure we've all enjoyed it over the years. I switched from a standard stereo (Benz cassette deck) to a JVC Bluetooth unit. I looked at the harness and compared it to the stock harness to make sure the power and ground matched and they did. I checked the test light output and consistent output and they matched this suspension setup perfectly. My son and I plugged in a new stereo cable at my…

Pros
  • Lighting and Electrical
Cons
  • Almost never

Good. about everything in order. I used this on my 2002 Benz E 240 and it wasn't an exact match. The +12 vehicle memory and two other pins did not align with the slots on this harness. I had to take out the red (+12 memory) wire and put it back in a different slot to match the stock wires. To use my Sony CDX-GT500U I didn't have to worry about other misaligned pins. I connected +12 Memory and +12 Switch together and then connected them with +12 Memory wires. The ground (black) has been leveled…

Suitable for Mercedes SLK 230

I bought this wiring harness to install a new radio in my 2003 Mercedes SLK 230. This is the right piece! wires (maybe others too). This is a battery constant and ignition. I also installed a SONY stereo. Now the important thing here is that it will depend on the tape recorder whether it turns on without ignition or not. These new stereos are designed not to turn on unless you turn on the ignition, so don't forget to turn off the radio and save your car battery =) I was very confused by this…
