1993 - 2002 Pontiac Firebird / Camaro Radio Install

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Parts used linked in the description of the video!

[@jeepguy95]

One little tip I'd like to add is that, if you plan on reinstalling the factory radio, you'll need the TheftLock code in order to get it to function once you reinstall it. This can be done by calling an 800 number that can be found online (free of charge), and following the instructions to retrieve and enter the code into the radio and get it to function. Just a little tip. :)

[@kylindavis4103]

Thank you

[@destinydott4779]

Thanks!

[@faithresigns]

Exactly what I'm looking for in 2019. Looking forward to trying it myself.

[@Meanazhell]

Oh man, I was cringing on that radio scratching the hell out of the console! Go easy on that plastic, it cant be replaced!

[@alexschu1245]

Very nice install. Super clean. Love the condition your car is in.

[@jmltube41]

Awesome Job..! Worked for my 01 Trans..! Thank you..!

[@AzerinaM]

Omg! It looks like mine! I’ve got a new stereo I’d like put in mine as well, so here I am!

[@juggalo450]

i def need that cigarette replacement looks sweet always having problems with car chargers popping out

[@lzeta28pep90]

Would really like a double din in my 02 z28. Not too crazy about loosing the 35th anniversary molding on the bezel though haha. Thanks for the video brother

[@Valorius]

your car is very collectible. removing the stock radio and bezel would greatly hurt it's collectors value.

[@ryanlandon2004]

Buy another bezel to cut up

[@mef6660]

The metra replacement 2 din bezel requires you to transfer the oem "35th anniversary molding" and nearby switches.

[@nhguapo]

Very clean. I'm inspired to give this a shot, although I'm still not sure how you tied into the red and black wires with the steering wheel unit on that wiring harness.

[@brad9023]

It should just work by plugging it into the original wires.

[@ledmk2]

Nice install

[@peterwindle4453]

I was planning getting the factory steering wheel buttons to work with my after market head unit, but discovered that some slack person before me installed a clock spring that only supports the single wire for the air bag, not the steering wheel buttons. The clock spring that supports the other wires is very expensive... darn it!

[@heavychevy4616]

workin on a 98 formula, found ur video very helpful. thank u

[@wildeyed76]

Great job, I feel confident doing this myself now! Thank you!

[@Fer-ty3ch]

Nice and clean .. very profesional install

[@andysinger7336]

My 2001 has two solid blue wires on the factory harness to tap. I assume it’s the one with an empty pin on the other side?

[@DebbieAckerman-s4k]

I was looking for a video that explains which wires I use to hook up the steering wheel controls I have a 1995 Trans Am and bought a Metra connection but don't know what wire to wire?

[@autogeek23]

Good Video. i am about to install a Kenwood. i wonder how similar it will be. in regards to the wires. Catch 22. my radio is used and has a connector already wired to it and im not sure if its the correct connector for the F body. im going to give it a shot soon. thanks for making this video.

[@richgouette]

disgustingly clean installation...

[@christopherchadwick2354]

There is actually two different wire harnesses that connected to the factory radio. One is the one you used to connect to the radio, what does the other control / do? I can't see what it should connect to...?

[@richki.24]

thanks for the video, I'm looking to update and upgrade my 2002 Z28 with something similar ..

[@just_2swift]

96 Camaro RS. I want this!

[@just_2swift]

@67 SS nice bro! Mines is red body lowered with the RS kit with Corvette wagon wheels

[@just_2swift]

@67 SS I just avoid speed humps but it's not too low lol

[@Papa_Corgo]

What exactly is the micro bypass for? All I saw was that you had one of the three wires from the micro bypass hooked up to the harness but nothing else, do I need it for the backup camera? If I do need that micro by pass do I connect it to the cable that had the tag on it labeled “parking break” if so what wire from the bypass do I attach to it and what do the other wires on the micro bypass connect to?

[@Semtex0809]

I see that u skipped 96 camaro on description. What mount should i use for it if there is one

[@sperchucker92]

I just got my Pioneer double-din in the mail today for my ‘01 Trans Am… basically this exact install. I had Crutchfield put the wiring harness together for me, and they left the parking brake, reverse, and speed sensor wires out for me to connect to the vehicle. Do I have to connect the speed sensor wire? And if so, what is the purpose/benefit?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

The VSS (Vehicle Speed Sense) wire helps with units with either on board navigation or units with wireless apple carplay / android auto to help with accuracy of the nav. It isn't required to connect, but can aid in accuracy of your system. If you don't have anything to hook it to, just cap it off and you should be just fine.

[@brianstase7027]

Just did this install, radio works but not my brake lights don’t work, any help would be appreciated!

[@suzukigsxr5]

Hey.... I installed a pioneer radio in my trans am, but it sounds like garbage when I turn the sound up, new radio, new speakers all around. It sounds like the factory amp cuts out the full power of the radio.. how do I stop this?

[@shreklicious]

what about the 93 - 97 with the stereo looking towards the driver

[@thedarkphire33]

What obout door chimes and durndignals and stuff? Doesthat go through the radio and amp?

[@ths3900]

Nicely done.

[@redflagNeagle]

Can anyone answer why my stock stereo on 1999 pontiac trans am has 2 plugs on the back? I'm trying to put in a double din but don't know what to do with the second plug

[@pablotorres2749]

Didn't you see the video? The guy explains everything about the first and second wire harness, if you don't want to use the sterling wheel control just don't use the second one, hide it on the back of your new stereo

[@con-rob]

Does this setup allow Android Auto/Apple Carplay when plugged into the USB port that you placed in the cigarette lighter socket?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Yep, which is why we added that there!

[@JamesConlin-n7k]

Did you say this install bypasses the Monsoon Amp ?

[@chemicalspore]

Can this be done with monsoon system?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Yea all parts used for the radio install work great also on the monsoon system.

[@thatkid5spd300]

Would the steering wheel controls work if I did a c6/similar steering wheel swap?

[@andystaggs807]

What if you don’t have the WR spot in the back of the radio but you have the wire

[@MFP2241]

Is the steering wheel control adapter ASWC-1 a must for any radio?

[@captainofiron]

This is awesome thanks

[@vinnyfulcinelli6978]

What size radio are you installing?

[@trillmexicanz]

What kind of stereo size did you put in? Anyone knows? I need help. I have a 1995 5.7 trans am.

[@tylertomlinson3882]

Will the radio work without the antenna adapter?

[@rauljacobo2386]

Would that kit work for a 98 Grand Prix bc it look the same interior as a 98

[@davidvillagomez7359]

My steering wheel doesent have those buttons , will it still work ? And how do I get the steering wheel with the buttons

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Yes, you just won't need the steering wheel control adapter. As for adding a steering wheel with buttons, you would have to see if your clock spring supports additional features like that.

[@Pcaron52]

If you have a monsoon sound system than do you need the micro bypass? I'm guessing you don't but just wanna make sure

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Microbypass has no impact on the monsoon or non monsoon systems. It is simply to bypass the parking brake wire on pioneer radios only for video playback while in motion.

[@shadycamaro]

why dont you show how to install brackets on double din.. u skipped it? did u have to drill holes on the head unit?

[@rodrigomejia9096]

I just did my today and no the double din has holes already just line it up.

[@brianallen0826]

Can the new radio be installed so that a movie bluray can be watched while driving, obviously by the passenger

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

This radio cannot play blu-ray discs. Here is the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zqm8f6FugamppKc

[@kodykerr4304]

is the Pioneer AVH-1300NEX the only one compatible with this setup or do other 6.2 in stereos work? i'm only asking because where I'm from I can't find any of those exact stereos but find similar ones.

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Any double din would work as long as it is steering wheel controls compatible.

[@kodykerr4304]

@@ProvoBeastAudio alright thanks for your imput and time, man, great video.

[@dakuwolf2514]

Did you have to cut anything ?

[@artsaves100]

That only works for the 1998 -2002 , mine is a 1994 and is different.

[@hectorleon8373]

Will radio work with factory amps? How does it sound with factory setup?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

Yes, can work with Monsoon. the factory audio on this is more than 20 years old at this point, so as good as a 20 year old sound system will sound.

[@sschevmale24]

Can you show video of you replacimg the speakers on the camaro or firebird

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

we have them for this model year camaro / firebird. Link in description.

[@Haterade117]

How do you get the clips on the bezel doesn't seem like they fit

[@jesus-fernandoreyes2307]

How did you wire the steering wheel positive and negative wires to the rest of the harness?

[@ProvoBeastAudio]

For power and ground of the steering wheel control adapter harness, just tap them into the red and black of your radio harness adapter.

[@frankgrande6274]

Thanks

[@CoolDansta]

What if you dont have volume controls

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

then you dont,seems like a dumb question/

I am getting a 1995 Trans am. It's totally 100% original. I want redo the entire system like this with navigation and camera system . I just subscribed to the channel , do you have more videos on trans ams ? I want this car to sound like a studio on the inside.

You should really change the title to 98-02 camaro. Earlier camaros have a different center console setup.

[@legalizitt]

How are you going to put the factory radio back in if you cut the support panel out? Keep it stock, fool. The car is worth more stock. And the Delco radio is fine. Tell us how a Pontiac enthusiast who buys the car will weld the plate back in?

[@got04goat]

keep yours stock, let other people do what they want.

[@legalizitt]

@@got04goat Do what you want, I agree. He said to keep the radio in case you sell it to someone who wants to return it to stock. But he then cut out the support bracket. I wanted him to tell us how to reinstall the original radio after he cut out the bracket.

[@legalizitt]
