Question
I have a SANYO FXCD-550 CD/CASSETTE indash that I need the wiring harness for. I really love this in-dash. So when I traded vehicles I had them to take it out for me. They put it back in the original box that I had saved. After a few months I was going to install it in another vehicle of mine and when I removed it from the box I realized they failed to give me my wiring harness back. They just unplugged it and put it in the box. What do I need to do to get one?

Answer
The wiring harness is unique to the car, too.

But you can buy wiring harnesses at Walmart (some), cruthcfield.com or installer.com and such places.  You will have to know the car you are installing it into.

Of course, you can install it in another car without a wiring harness but it requires soldering all the wires coming out of the head unit to the correct wires of the car.

Hope this helps.
