I just was at pick n pull for 8 hours trying to find a radio.
Will this somehow connect to the wires in my 05 sunfire?
I can't find a wiring harness for it.
If I yanked the harness out of the car I got it from would it still work? Would all the colors match up?
This is my cars wiring thingy
It's smaller than the radio I bought.
nasty ass nails
Probably not.
Aftermarket -> OEM = OK
Brand 1 OEM -> Brand 2 OEM = No
A lot of OEM radios have some car functionality running through them, among other things. Not to mention the DIN sizes aren't normally 100% standard.
>8 hours searching for a radio
>buys the wrong one
Kek
God dammit this just isn't fair
I just wanted to listen to music in my car using an aux jack
Without costing millions of dollars
buy a cheap 20$ chinese stereo
thats what i did
it even has bluetooth
Those sound like absolute dick and break in 6 months. OP needs an OEM head unit from his manufacturer that has a gen 1 monodirectional CD changer port on it that can be wired to an aux jack pretty easily. He can't even do the same manufacturer part though so he's fucked.
just get a cheap radio from walmart or electronic express or something like that i paid $100 for a head unit and 4 speakers it has aux
I bet OP's factory radio has a tape player.
Stop being such a cheap faggot and buy a 40 dollar pioneer head unit.
>spend 8 hours instead of buying a cheap system
Actually no it's the other way around
I have a cd unit and I want to downgrade to a tape unit so I can plug in a cassette to aux thing and connect that to Bluetooth.
Pretty sure I'm fucked right now but I can still return this and try to find another one.
Why not just buy a cheap stereo with aux and Bluetooth?
Because they're not cheap at all and everything you have to do to hook it up makes it even more expensive.
>Buy cheap wiring harness adapter
>Plug in
Not hard
Where are these cheap radios you speak of?
Other user said they break down easily?
>05 sunfire
should have left it at picknpull
>car stereos are expensive and hard to install
You're the same kind of retard that comes to /g/ and says building a PC is too hard. Fuck off already.
I'm sure you can find a converter, just hope it's not harder than buying a new one.
I know sunfires are cavalier twins, but I hope is not as hard as it was for my old csv. Take the whole dash apart, it was ass.
k well you could have looked this shit up before hand, but now you're wasting both time and gas when you can probably have just gotten a used aftermarket radio for 40$ and this kind of shit is the reason you're broke as fuck driving a fucking sunfire.
>going to pull a part for 8 hours for a stock radio instead of buying an aftermarket head unit with full harness and instructions for $50-$100
What r u doin m8
>cheap stereo
>playing through Bluetooth
I guess when you listen to bad music you don't really care about the quality
Being a broke NEET?
