Thumbs up Re: For Sale: Radio Wiring Harnesses for SVX!!

Hey all - just wanted to chime in here and say that I'm really happy with the harnesses which I purchased from SVXDC - quality is top notch, all is working perfectly.

I had originally picked up the stock stereo - mated it up to the reverse harness but it has some cold solder joints which are cracked (not surprising at all considering its pretty old) - picked up a really nice little JVC head unit and mated that to the forward harness with ease.

Stereo is sounding great now - all with svxdc's help - shipping was fast, he's done an amazing job with all the documentation - and he was right on top of my questions really quickly.

All in all - THANKS !

Re: For Sale: Radio Wiring Harnesses for SVX!!

I'll second that! I ordered one shortly after I bought my car, and I couldn't have been more pleased. From the quick ship time to the simplicity of the install, all was extremely smooth and my stereo works great!

As far as the harness, yes it will. The Alpine will come with a harness that plugs into the HU. You'll join that up with my SVX harness to connect to the car's radio harness.

You should check that the flip-up screen on the Alpine will fit in the SVX dash. At the very least, it will definitely block the A/C controls. At worst, it may not protrude far enough out from the radio bay so that it can fold up vertical without hitting the dash above the radio.

I can't tell how far forward the display comes out, but here's the best picture I could find after a quick search (scroll down to see several other pics).

Re: For Sale: Radio Wiring Harnesses for SVX!!

I'm looking into getting an eclipse 5510 7" double din. I assume this harness would work well, does anyone see any troubles with the unit fitting in an svx?

Depth-wise it will fit in the cage. You'll definitely have to notch or remove part of the rear of the cage.

It will be a challenge to slide the cage back into the dash with all of the wires hanging out the back. There won't be any easy way to coil them up behind the radio/cage. Perhaps you could tie some pull-strings to the various harnesses (with the other ends of the strings popping out in the foot wells) and pull the harnesses back into the openings where the antenna and car's radio harness go.

The display "tray" on that Eclipse may be a little too low. I think it will hit the bottom-left edge of the SVX's cover door as the tray extends out. The bottom of the tray needs to be about 1/2" to 9/16" (13 to 15 mm) up from the bottom of the cage to clear the corner of the SVX's door above the cigarette lighter.

The display looks like it would be OK once it's vertical, but you'll have to retract it whenever you need to access the disc slots. If you play stuff mostly off the USB port (and not CDs or DVDs), then that might not be so bad.

You could possibly "cheat" and push the SVX cover door down a little more while the display folds out. But you'd have to remember to do that every time.

Here are pictures on SonicElectronix (scroll down to the 3rd one)

Here's a better angle on Crutchfield's product page:

This is definitely the hard part. I had a heck of a time when I installed the WRX 6-disc unit in mine. David's wiring harness was the easiest part of the job. Make sure you test the unit before you put it all together again though. I had a bad splice (my fault) and had to rip it all back out again.

Good idea.

Re: For Sale: Radio Wiring Harnesses for SVX!!

Thanks for all the info! Very helpful. Hopefully I'll be picking up an svx either next week or the week after, so I don't know exactly how the stereo cover door works. Would it be possible to remove a spring or something that would allow it to drop down lower so it wouldn't interfere with the eclipse system's tray when it is open for disc use?

Oh and I haven't seen it yet but if the stereo is after market and has already been hardwired will the harness still be good to have?

Not really. There's a stop you could remove to gain a tiny bit. Beyond that, the inside of the door hits the bottom of the cage, and the outside of the door will hit the cigarette lighter pod. You'd also have to remove the spring to keep the door from banging into either of those.

Here's a picture of the passenger side of the cage:

(click for larger image)
The stop is the black piece below the hinge pin.

The gear is always on the passenger side. So on RHDs it's on the left side.

Here's the opposite side on the UK RHD version (it would be the mirror image for LHD):

(click for larger image)
There are several more pictures of the cage in my SVX installation guide.

You'd be better off finding a HU that doesn't have that clearance problem (either has a tray that's higher up as I wrote earlier, or one where you plan to open/close the tray very infrequently). That Eclipse might actually fit, but you need to verify it before you're stuck with one.

You could also remove the cover door entirely, but that would leave an opening at the bottom that you'd need to dress up somehow.

If they used vampire taps and the factory harness is still there, you can remove the taps and use my harness. If they snipped the factory harness, then you can either hard-wire the new HU's harness (which will shorten the factory wires a little more), or install my reverse harness to get it back to stock, and then use my forward harness to install the new HU.

So where can I get the AUX input wiring for the 07' WRX style of Subaru head unit?
