white-gt Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Right guys, ive got my parcel shelf, my stereo plates (still no screws ), and i found some old speakers i had in my last starlet that are light a 3 way setup (not 6x9) so gonna see if thery still work just to get me by, and i have my fly amp for when i get my 6x9's.What stereo adapter cable do i need? does it depend on the stereo?im not getting a dear head unit maybe £60 or something, pioneer or JVC maybe.Anyone got any thoughts or advice?

rob_bower Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 no all iso cables just covnvert the manufaturer plugs to all be the same for after market stereo's so as long as you get thr right one for the car you should be fine infact think i have one somewhere from a gt.

jezza Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm pretty sure all new head units come with an ISO adapter. Worth checking to see if your car loom still has the ISO plugs as some times they get cut off when people bodge the installation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

metalmickey0 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) I just got myself a new Pioneer head unit and lead from the Halfords website. Reserved them both. Strangly enuf the head unit i got is brand new release too. Same as my Sony was before which i now got spare. And i found out i didnt need the extra lead like the site said as there was one in the box. So i took the lead back got my money back. So you do need to check if it really needs a lead, like mine didnt. lol. So i now got a full Pioneer system too which sounds lovely Edited July 26, 2012 by metalmickey0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
