@@eramirezjr5461 Thanks got it👍
I got the same radio for the same car works great. The old Toyota radio the driver side speaker was sounding awful thought that it was blown not the case.. Then got a buzzing noise on a station. The radio is trashed..
What model is that Kenwood?
Thank you this is very helpful!
Your welcome!
Spanish music O h*** yeah we are everywhere. Asi es😱🤖😁
This is seriously the easiest install I’ve ever seen!
Thank you!
EASY AS 1,2,3 U ROCK BRO . NOT HELLA TALKING STRAIGHT TO THE POINT ITS KENWOOD.
Thank you, that's the way videos should be made, straight to the point. Not all youtubers are the same. Thanks and Happy Holidays!
Nice of you to do this- putting in an Alpine iL-x W650 into my Camry 1995 SE V6.
NICE!
thats double din right ? what kit did you use ? i cant find one online?
@@paisaco Yes- great unit and still working very well with my Apple phone. Bluetooth is tricky- want to take over all of the time. Just unpair and use wired connection.
Hi Karl, Thanks for your response.
@@karlreimers did you use a kit ? like something special or just use the stock brackets that were on the OG Radio
?
yo ik this was 2 years ago, but were there any issues you came across? I've got a 1994 (pretty much the same car but a little cuter looking than the 95 LOL) and I really need a radio replacement, logic deck broken af :/
I connected everything but now the stereo isn't turning on I tested it with the old one and same thing, I can't tell if its one of the wires or not. Just before i changed everything it was working good on the old one.
Thanks
Thanks man for sharing
Thank you for the video
Your welcome.
Thanks for the video
You bet
I tried installing and my cd player and after it doesnt have sound but power on and wrks what could be the problem???
Hey, did you install an aftermarket wiring harness? Being that their color coded, get any speaker and connect it to a set of the color coded speaker wires on the harness. You should have sound. I don't think that those Camry's came with a stock amp. Also check your antenna wire, make sure its inserted into the radio. Check the rear speakers, make sure their connected. I did run into that with a resent install and connected the antenna wire and it came to life being that I was trying the radio channels. If anything try to do a bench test on the radio before installing. This way your 100% sure the radio works.
Gracias
The black antenna wire that has a connector already on it........where did that plug into on the new one?
Hey, look at the back of the radio unit your installing. You will see a round hole, thats where the antenna wire needs to be plugged into. All aftermarket units have it.
so, idk if you’d know. mine has the anti-theft system. if I remove it, and swap it, and want to swap back, will it still work? I have a sticker on my window that says that it won’t work if taken out.
Hey Evan, Good question. Your answer is YES. You can swap to an aftermarket radio and swap it back with the stock radio just as long as it's the original radio that came with your Camry. The sticker implies that the radio will not work if removed and used in another car and vise versa. That only applies to the stock radio. Hope this helped!
Did u have to connect any wires together or did u just plug the blue connectors into the white connectors and that was it
YES, when it comes to replacing a stock radio with an after market, your always going find yourself connecting wires. Once you select the radio you want to install, you can buy an after market plug specially made for your vehicle. Thus making it easier to plug into the factory wiring and not strip them. Like you saw in the video, I wired the after market plug to the radio and then connected that same plug to cars factory wire plug. All after market plug wires are color coded to match the new radio. It never fails! Any doubt just let me know ok. Thanks for asking!
@@eramirezjr5461 I just have a head radio , can it install just that and get a harness wire???
@@jordymurillo7996 Yes, you can get the harness and install any after market head unit with that wire harness. It makes it easier that way.
Simple !
I have the same car what’s the part number on that harness you used I search it up on amazon but a bunch come on don’t want to use the wrong one?
Hey, Its from Metra 70-1761 If your car has an electric antenna, it will work perfectly.
do you need the amazon wires for it to connect I’ve seen my brothers radio and the wires in the car are the ones connect into the radio?
Hey Alex, well, the factory harness is made to connect directly to its factory radio only. If your installing a Pioneer, there is a custom harness available that connects the Pioneer to the factory harness without having to deal with the color coded wiring. Just plug and play. Now if your installing a radio that doesn't make any custom harness for your car, then your only option is to buy the harness at amazon or ebay which ever is cheaper. It might look intimidating but its not. You buy the harness adapter, connect all the wires as color indicates it. Tape them up individually to make sure they don't make contact with one another then connect factory harness plug to the new harness and everything should work. Hope this helps. If any doubts let me know.
So how do you connect the wires, which color goes where???
Hey William Rowe, this is simple if you are installing an aftermarket unit. All aftermarket unit come with there own harness which is color coded. For this install you will also need the wire harness that connects your radio unit to the factory harness, which is also color coded to match the aftermarket.unit wiring . So match and connect the wires, Green,Purple,Grey and white are for speakers. Blue/Black, Blue are for power options like power antenna or an amp. Yellow, Red and Black are the wires that power on the radio unit so be careful with those wires. I never do Frankenstein setups where I connect the aftermarket radio directly to the factory wiring. Thats a NO NO! Head unit and the Scosche TA02B wiring harness will make it easy. Hope this helps!
Thank you!!!!
Your welcome!
I still don’t get it this is so confusing
Did you connect the blue and blue white together?
Hey Orlando, NO! The blue wire on the after market harness can be used for the power antenna if the car has one. The blue/white wire is meant for a after market amp and that's if your gonna use one. If not, just tape the ends to make sure they don't ground them self's. Those 2-wires provide a 5 volt (+) signal to accessories you may have and want to add. Hope this helps and stay safe!
The stereo I bought doesn’t fit in that cage thing, it’s not long enough and doesn’t have screw holders. It’s a dual xd17mbt. Do I have to buy a different stereo? I can’t find an installation kit for this car either. I kinda forcefully made it fit but then the last panel doesn’t fit nicely. I’d appreciate any help
What brand stereo unit are you trying to install? Brand and model number would help. Also, You need the brackets from the original radio or aftermarket brackets which are plastic.
It’s called Dual and model number is xd17mbt. I’m trying to use the original brackets but it doesn’t seem to work. The unit is pretty short and has no place for screws. I tried getting a plastic dash kit for Toyota but it doesn’t work with this Camry. It’s kinda annoying. Thanks for the help
I believe your referring to the Dual Electronics XDM17BT . If so, yes its short but to install that one you need the original cage that comes with that radio. If you don't have the original cage then your gonna have to be tool savvy. Without the cage I do see that it does not have any screw hole but you may be able to drill your own. The cage is what makes it easier in your case.
eramirez jr yep that’s the one! The only cage it comes with is just like a sleeve, that too without any holes for screws. And I tried to somehow fit it but then the head unit itself seems to be too wide for the dash, here’s a photo of what it looks like.

@@AhsenJabbar In that picture I do see that its the radios bezel is too wide. All aftermarket radios bezel are wider than the radio its self. Is the bezel removable? You might have to use the radio with out the bezel. In the installation I did, I left the bezel out of the equation. I suggest you do the same.
Would you still Hakeem to have the stock radio and accessories
Sorry but I no longer have the stock radio. You may find it on ebay.
can I use the old casing since Im putting the new single din radio?
Your referring to the brackets right? If so, yes you can. Just attach the old brackets to the new radio and install.
@@eramirezjr5461 I'm talking about the shelf the bottom shelf..
@@padieromel Yes, you can use the bottom compartment just as long as you use the stock brackets.
Will those brackets line up with any aftermarket stereo?i wanna do the same thing reuse the brackets.
Yes, they will fit like a glove and are better than the plastic ones that are sold on the market. If you have the original brackets? Use them!!!
I can’t find a double din kit anywhere for this year Camry, do you think it a double din stereo would fit it nice without the kit ?
Hey good question. You can fit a double din, but you have to use the stock brackets. I don't think they made double din kits for that model and year due to limited space. That's why is best to use the stock brackets with this Camry. I just hope you still have the brackets, you will need them.
Oh, one more thing, take measurements of that double din radio before you install. Ok Not all double dins radios are created equal.
@@eramirezjr5461 great advice, I already ordered the double din, I currently have the stock radio I’ll see if I can make it work 👍
@@jayranger9605 No problem, use the brackets and you should be fine.
@jayranger9605 did you ever install that double din head unit? And if yes how'd it fit any problems?
Does the power radio antenna still work when you do this or do you need to wire it specifically?
Yes, the power antenna worked fine after the custom radio install.
The only wires I connected was the after market plug to the aftermarket radio. The rest is plug and play and reassembly. To my surprise, the power radio antenna worked fine.
Alright thanks, wasnt sure how the antenna worked in this car, I once had a 97 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight with a power antenna and I had to do all types of wiring crap to get the antenna to work so i said screw it and just stuck the antenna up manually and disconnected the motor, glad to see the camry wont be the same way.
Yes and it still works.
Where do I get the adapters I need those
Hey Dakota, the wire harness can be found on Amazon or ebay. Look for the Metra 70-1761 Radio Wiring Harness. Hope this helps!
@@eramirezjr5461 is it this one?
Direct Wire Harness for Pioneer Headunits (only Compatible with Toyota and Subaru) on Amazon
Well, you can get that harness if you don't want to snip and connect wiring. Make sure that it's really compatible with a pioneer head unit, if that's what yours installing.
What is the model of that CD player?
Its a Kenwood KMM-BT522HD and it does not play CD's. You have to use a Flash Drive with this model. A 32Gb was chosen and installed with a lot music. When I was using it, I had a 64Gb and it had close to 5k songs and it was half empty. Thanks for asking!
Where did you get those white connectors?
On Amazon, just look up your car model's RADIO HARNESS.
Ebay best price.!
Hey I'm installing in a 94 Camry and there's a floating blue wire that runs down toward under the steering wheel. Amy idea what that is? Is it supposed to be connected to the harness? I also have a blue wire on the harness with nothing to connect to on the stereo's connector, unless it's supposed to connect to the blue/white one?
pasteboard.co/J1dOLRA.jpg
Hey, sorry for not getting to you quick enough. Now, the Blue/White wire is meant for power accessories, power antenna,. If your model has a power antenna, than that wire provides signal to your antenna. Make sure its connected to your harness if it does have that feature. The solid Blue wire if i'm correct is part of the speaker wires. First install your after market harness then power on and test the speaker and antenna. Once the harness wiring is done, everything should work. If you need more help, fell free to ask and stay safe.
@@eramirezjr5461 thanks man, I think I got it figured out
Can a double din fit this car?
Yes, It will fit nicely. Just remember that you will no longer be able to use the plastic pocket that's underneath the radio also make sure your rear speakers are in good shape for the upgrade ok.
@@eramirezjr5461 what plastic pocket
@@paisaco The storage compartment that sits underneath the radio. It was used with the aftermarket radio due to its single din.
@@eramirezjr5461 Oh i see , the system you have in your 95 cam is slightly different in my XLE V6. it has casssete and CD player, no smaller black door.
thanks for your help buddie!!
XD
The replacemwnt radio is a PoS...you should've left the old one. Sad!
