Need help-Toyota car stereo in-dash connection wiring.

[chukstel]

Hello all in the house, I need help installing another in-dash toyota car stereo inside my 2000 year land cruiser with 2uz-fe engine.

OEM stereo was faulty and I could not get it repaired so I have to buy a replacement used one.

problem now is wiring connections are not the same so I need the wiring to get it working with the OEM stereo amplifier inside the car.

can anyone try help me out? I have google the number on the label several times but got nothing. the connection with 20 pin seems to be for amplifier but I cannot get the wire layout.

here is the attached picture if the stereo. and all comments and help appreciated.

thank you all.

You may find the info on factory radio connections in this thread from the MUD FAQs.

If the photos you've posted are the used replacement radio and you're asking about pin outs, I have no idea.

Have you bought your replacement yet? I have a full stock system from a 1998 I just pulled out in order to upgrade to a touch screen Kenwood. Radio, amp and speakers.

Why not go with an aftermarket head unit??

Update on the car stereo wire connections.

I have finally gotten the stereo installed and working OK for now. just finished it today. I have to build my own harness using the diagrams on these links below.

I did not make the negative (-) speaker connections from the new radio.

sound is very OK. the only problem now is that there is this GSM noise anytime the phone is searching for network intermittently and when you switch on to on and start the car, you have this noise on the radio.

I have say a big thank you to all that has contributed to my help. you all made it possible for me.

Note that I am still using the stock speakers and amp.
