This is exactly what I needed. I don't like the aftermarket radio in my 94 Blazer and I'm going to be hooking up the factory radio. This will be very helpful! My only problem is finding an original equalizer for the truck. Hopefully a junk yard has one!

[@cazub123]

these are the best how to's i've watched yet. Contents good, layouts good, camera work is good.

[@MrNoteworks]

Very helpful JP. Just finished. This cut my time down knowing exactly where all the screws were. BTW, I used a half depth deck (no CD), so I was able to leave that center bracket in place under the old cassette deck. A little concerned about heat from the vents affecting the deck over time. I may add some insulation between. Thanks again, great job.

[@johannjohann6523]

Pretty good video. You actually mentioned the size of nuts and bolts needed. Most appreciated.

[@ManuFortiMcCoy]

Damn, Man. The fact you didn't wash off those vents before reinstalling is making me cringe. Upvote for the how to remove the vent clip with the pick too though.

[@timgreer7440]

Is there anyway you can send me a link for the wire harness adapter? I’m wanting to install an aftermarket in my 94 Chevy c2500 pickup, not sure what the clip harness is called, also can I buy any regular aftermarket stereo, all I want is Bluetooth. Thanks !

[@eddiewillitsjr9274]

Did you splice all 4 of the original harnesses or just the two that were plugged in on top of the tuner?

[@Dougyf2011]

I have a 94 Chevy Kodiak c7500 interior is basically from any obs Chevy in the same year. What wiring harness and kit you recommend? Send me part numbers please

[@reverendstumpy9676]

[@denton7773]

Junkyard bro. Duh. Lol

[@reverendstumpy9676]

Bought a 3d printer and made my own designed replacement to the traditional spring, as well as now custom making other parts. ... Note, just going to the junkyard like the replys would be a LOT cheaper if you don't alrrady want a 3d printer & tech based already lol )

[@chrisnielsen3562]

Why did you have remove the A/C vents from that plastic piece you removed? Doesn’t air just come through there?

[@EvalConservative]

You're removing the vents from the factory piece and moving them over to the new Metra 99-3000R dash kit (link above). The equalizer and tape player are wider than a single DIN stereo. The Metra dash kit gives you the perfect single DIN space so your install is clean and looks good.

[@kingofrannoch]

I just want to know who thought it would be a good idea to put the stereo by the glove box instead of the normal next to the steering wheel location

[@chaseallen2090]

Great video, just got my fathers truck and ready to fix her up nice

[@ResurrectionUph]

Great video. Pro and to the point. I'm a pro uph guy who does stereo. Couldn't have made a better video besides covering the small differences between dashes and factory heads

[@danh6224]

What did you do with the sterio head in the right main part of the dash? Its actually the controller, display, etc. Reason asking, if not needed, would like to use space for gauges. Also, what unit do you find best in sound/features for this model truck. I kinda like the EQ, will miss it. And finally, can a LCD style unit fit in that pocket once removing brackets etc. Thx!

[@MikaeleIosefa714]

Thanks for this video new subscriber. I have a 93 and when i removed the old stereo i noticed a lone white wire connected to the receiver. What did you do with that? Did you use it? or cap it off? Thank You!

[@Stevet19791]

I have an 88 gmc k1500 with different style plugs, I did get a wiring harness and matched color for color, cd player turns on but I get no sound, plug the old stereo in and I have sound? Did I get the wrong harness? Or am I missing something?

[@rockyshoresOD]

Did you figure it out? I have the same problem!!

[@MadAtMax.300Blackout]

Bought a 93 c1500 recently. Owners had an aftermarket radio in it with no faceplate so I got a cheap new one, gets power but no audio... can't figure out why. All wires are correct.

[@jeremyshawley5119]

What is that one single dark green wire next to the plugs you unplugged from the old tuner

[@zhpike0478]

Did you have to use any other mounting kits for the radio, or was it just the one with the vents?

[@cavalierliberty6838]

Hey, just curious, does this process more or less look similar to the trucks without the tape deck and equalizer with the head unit next to the gauges?

[@garygonzales687]

Do you have to reinstall that radio/amplifier underneath the dash..? I just wired up my new stereo into my 92c1500 and I had no sound come out there speakers.

[@pakiballa786]

im trying to connect the factory radio back, I want it to all be stock. but the guy who had the truck before had an aftermarket stereo setup and I can't find the gm 4001 plugs, can you do a video on removing a aftermarket radio and installing the stock on back on? mine is a 1990 chevy k1500

[@DrippyN9ne]

I have a 93 GMC Sierra c1500. I am trying to install an after market stereo but am having issues. I have the correct wiring harness and even have it correctly spliced into my new stereo but I don’t get any power to the stereo. Any idea what this could be? The truck only has stereo, no cassette deck or anything else.

[@SwoleDolphin]

hey so at about 6:00 the clips for the bottom to keep it in, you completely skipped showing those, i’ve been tryna find some for my dash bcuz some one broke in and stole my stereo and just took the whole dash piece

[@champion2371]

hey just curious, does the stock harness have a red wire? for power i cant seem to find in my harness and nor do i see it in your video.

[@kristenterry8879]

How would he take the antenna wire completely out of the truck to replace it

[@MrStrongpack]

How do I reinstall vents with the retaining clips? Mine popped off when removing.

[@andrewhill4198]

That helped other then the fact my gm wire harness is cut off so not sure what do to abt that

[@irishuwould5185]

Please help. I took out the after market radio to access my ac vents to put new retainers and when I put the radio back in it lost power and my inside lights flash on and off real dim. Idk what happened, just when I pushed it back in something happened. I had to unplug the radio for the lights to stop flashing.

[@jptheinstallguy]

Hmmm? Are connections still good. Did you check your fuses to make sure nothing is blown?

[@irishuwould5185]

@@jptheinstallguy I actually checked my fuses after I posted this comment and sure enough the “ctsy” (courtesy) 20 amp fuse was blown. Whoever installed the radio didn’t protect the loose wiring and just left it all exposed so I’m assuming one of them touched each other or some metal. I replaced the fuse and wrapped all the cut wires in electrical tape. All is good now. I’m no electrician that’s why I was freaked out lol.

[@jptheinstallguy]

I'm glad you got the issue fixed though and always tape off loose unused wires. You did good bruh💯

[@imachickinosaur697]

Hey quick question do you know where I can get an aluminum radio harness for my 94 silverado cuz I can't find one anywhere

[@Treyes92]

Hey man what could be the problem with mines of the fuse isn’t blown and the wiring is correct on the harmess?

[@mikewood6445]

Is it possible to put the radio into the original location of the stock radio? Where all the controls are? I think it’s be a better look and easier to control from the driver seat

[@kevinhudson3310]

Cruthchfeild has a couple units that fit the stock mounting location.

[@Sparky_fashion08371]

How much harder will it be to add like a 7in touch screen to it than that one??

[@quentellambert8449]

Can you go double den on these trucks? Got a 1991 chevy C3500 and looking to add a backup camera for hauling and need a double den to do that.

[@knerduno5942]

There is a special kit for that, but you have to cut the lower dash out. But you do not need a double din. There are single din radios which have a sliding 7 inch touch screen.

[@NwS_Syko]

I have a deck already in my truck but it doesn’t have AUX port or Bluetooth.. how you put a new deck in??? I have a deck already in it but it’s a CD one and wanna get a one with Bluetooth or a one with a AUX one

[@BrendaHuerta701]

What do I do if my face of the radio isn’t coming out?

[@notgey7050]

My done lights stop working after install help

[@colemartin9733]

I have one question I am trying to find one for my 94 pickup as well but I am having a hard time understanding what happens to the control panel on the dash. I mean the top control stereo that is where the radio is usually controlled so what happens to that when you put the new stereo in?

[@colemartin9733]

I hope that made since

[@patrickmcgunagle651]

The control panel on the dash will be dead because the CDM controls the clock as well as the radio. I have a 1993 and the method in this video produces a dead control panel... so I'm going to keep my CDM in and try to wire a radio in another way.

[@Captain-.James.-T.-Kirk]

How do you mount the radio? The video skipped over that part. Does it just slide in? Thanks

[@knerduno5942]

You mount the radio bracket in the hole. Once the dash part is back in place, you slid the radio in.

[@Ijosephee]

Do you disconnect the radio when you work on the stuff

[@darb0836]

HI, the video was very helpful getting the radio out, but I am confused with the wiring, the Metra wire harness 70-2001 doesn't fit with the 2 hookups that you moved to face the new stereo. I think you say you just need the blue one, is that right? Or do you also plug the black one into the same Metra wire harness 70-2001? Thanks!

[@darb0836]

www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/stereo-wiring-harness/metra-stereo-wiring-harness-gmwh1/207609_0_0 this harness fit the vehicle, if the one listed in the description does fit a 94 Chevy Pickup I did not know how to plug both hookups into it.

[@chrisharris3371]

Installed it just like you got here but no power. Is it possible I got the 2 smaller plugs switched?

[@jptheinstallguy]

maybe or make sure your fuse isnt blown

[@chrisharris3371]

@@jptheinstallguy it was a blown fuse. Thanks for all the help.

[@marshallcowan4734]

So I have that same radio and did all of the steps and it still does not work I know the wiring is right but I don’t know where the fuse or the relay is so if someone could tell me where it is I would appreciate it

[@Hduran94]

Great video! Saved me a bunch of time.. I do have one problem tho. I replaced 4x6 in my dash and pillars. When the engine is not running all speakers sound loud and clear.. but when engine is running I get crackling from speakers . I’m going crazy trying to figure out the problem. Do you have any idea what it can be?

[@jptheinstallguy]

hmmmmm? thats a tough one it shouldnt be doing that! did it do that with the old speakers?

[@tird108]

could be bad ground i think also unhook the yellow wire i believe as thats to ur ignition and then youll halfto manually power it on

[@EvalConservative]

Thank you for the vid JP. Just curious if the factory display still works showing the clock after this. Or is that factory unit just completely dead when you install this way?

[@tuckerbrandstrom575]

Factory unit is completely dead. When you unplug the tuner harness, you cut power to it. There's a storage cubby available online that bolts in place of the factory stereo.

[@Southized]

Man i pulled the aftermarket single out my z71 to put in my s10 tried to put it back in wont turn on wiring is good fuses are good cant figure it out

[@jptheinstallguy]

if you have a multimeter or some sort of voltage meter check the the voltage on on the red,yellow, and black wire to make sure the voltage is there if not than there is a fuse blown somewhere that you might have not seen
