Here's how to install a new stereo in your car!


If radio in your older vehicle does not have aux, Bluetooth, backup camera or GPS, Android Auto, Amazon Alexia or Apple CarPlay then why not update it to the latest and greatest with an aftermarket stereo?



This step by step guide will demonstrate how to remove the existing radio, the parts needed for the upgrade, and how to install the new stereo in your car. The result will be better modern media integration with outstanding sound quality compared to using an aux adapter or FM transmitter.



Most vehicles start by removing the trims surrounding the radio, and then unbolting it from the dashboard, followed by removing certain connectors. A dash kit and wiring kit must be purchased to convert the aftermarket deck to the OEM standard connectors. These must be manually soldered on to a wiring harness that plugs into the factory plugs. Finally, brackets are transferred from the old radio to the new stereo, and the new stereo is installed just the same way it came out.



A backup camera must also be installed to make use of its function on the new radio. Here's a video on how to install a backup camera:



The vehicle demonstrated in this video is a 2012 Toyota Corolla and should be the same for all 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 model year Toyota Corolla, and similar for other Toyota and Scion models.


The model number of the radio used is a Pioneer MVH-210EX. It includes the microphone, stereo wire harness, and a USB cable.
The dash installation kit used is a Metra 95-8223.
The wiring harness used is a Metra 70-1761.
The steering wheel control harness is a Metra Axxess ASWC-1.
The antenna adapter is a Metra 40-LX11.



Tools required include a Philips screwdriver, a flat edged toothbrush or panel removal tool, soldering iron, heat-shrink, heat gun, 10mm socket with 6" extension and 3/8" drive ratchet. A flash light and magnet make things easier.
